He's already stated that he won't be playing his full contract. You really think Kovulchuk is going to play 17 years, it's a loop hole in the CBA I suggest your team use this to your advantage instead of low balling my homeboy subban.

Low ball?

MDZ just got a similar offer. Bergevin has been critized for not getting him signed yet several key RFA's remain unsigned.

I love Subban but I would prefer the two year deal also. Just like Pacioretty and Price.

He's almost 29 though. Don't you think he'll want longer term? Maybe one of his last chances to cash in.

Would the Leafs extend Luongo if traded for Lupul, Gardiner +1st?
- Scooby_Doo

Maybe, but at least Kesler would be locked up longterm.

Maybe a 2 year deal is better and if he stays healthy, then he gets a 5 year deal.

Put Reimer and Sh1tens in the net at the same time, maybe one of them will stop the puck.

What are you? 10yrs old? That was just a stupid troll comment. Grow up.

And due to age, contract,and the lack of a display of a complete inability to perform in big games they're still worth more than luongo.

Close but if Im his agent I'd want more. I'd do 4y @ 6m that seems fair. He's too high risk for longer term I'd rather higher cap hit. Would love that deal if he can put 65+ points this year, or atleast that PPG if we have hockey.

I've been very pleasantly surprised with lupul. But he's not getting 6 mil over 4 years. Are you guys nuts?

I'm not saying give him that now, I wouldn't extend Lupul in the off-season. If he can repeat last season or atleast have a similar season then I'd offer him that before the trade deadline. Then depending on how the team is doing extend him or trade.

I'm sure his production will take a hit from Carlyle but if he can stay healthy he should be good for 60+, well see.

I'd be fine giving Lupul a 6 year contract if he took $5M per.

He would probably get it on the open market. That's the point.

Burke will likely want to extend him to a 2 yr/3yr contract max. with his injury history.

Agree with this 100% if he want's 4 years it's a flat 5-5.25 due to never being able to complete a full season.

He has not been healthy for a full year yet, it's really hard to lock him in that long in a leaf sweater, I would imagine they have talked about it already or something is in the works.

My Lupul jersey says PLEASE KEEP HIM and my logical mind says like Prince says under 6 for 3 years, if it works out great we offer him more money later.

Do you think Lupul will sustain the points that he did last year?
