Maple Leafs Re-Sign John Tavares for 4 Years and the Oilers Keep Trent Frederic Around Long Term
- On Friday, the Toronto Maple Leafs re-signed forward John Tavares to a four-year contract extension with a $4.38 million average annual value, announced before the NHL Draft.
- Rooted in his Toronto roots, Tavares took less than open-market offers to stay, making his re-signing a key offseason priority for the Maple Leafs.
- Tavares' contract includes $2 million in deferred compensation and a two-season no-movement clause, aligned with the new CBA's restrictions on such mechanisms.
- Following the extension, Tavares's return stabilizes the Leafs' forward lineup behind Matthews, reducing the pool of available centres on expiring deals.
- The upcoming July 1 free agency will limit the Maple Leafs’ ability to re-sign Mitch Marner to an eight-year deal due to new CBA restrictions starting September 2026.
