He's not worth it.

Definitely not. I wouldn't want them to make that offer.

Heard Tampa has 7yrs $7M on the table for Niskanen. I don't even think the Flyers can make that offer without moving serious salary.

yzerman was clearing cap space for this deal

probably Nisk camp looking for 8M holding it up

He should just take the $7M and enjoy playing with one of the best young teams in the league

I bet they're really in on Niskanen right now
- PhillySportsGuy



They have something over 13M in cap space but what looks like a lot of spaces to fill.

And if that rumor is true, what is Niskanen waiting for, more money?

Only 3 years though. Those 4-8 years contracts end up being the real killers

The thing I see is Nashville hasn't done anything. Have a feeling that there is something being worked out with Philly and Nashville. Proably depending on the money kept depends on the player or picks coming back. Just a gut feeling. Probably terrbily wrong
