In this episode of The Hockey Writers Maple Leafs Lounge, Toronto Maple Leafs writers Peter Baracchini and Jim Parsons get together to react to Auston Matthews signing a four-year extension to make him the highest-paid player in the NHL at $13.25 million AAV. They also talk about the implications it will have on the William Nylander negotiations and how it could affect Mitch Marner's future contract as well.
