well apparently he does... his numbers aren't Crosby or Toews. steady progession year over year. Of course he is asking for some cash like every other RFA lol. Solid two way forward great skater, can play wing and center. Not sure i get the hate, just cuz he wants paid?

The future stars of the NHL should get paid... All the other leagues are paying their players (the stars anyway)...There is no reason why 3rd liners have such a close gap of pay in comparison to the great players... Its crap- pay the stars pay less to the middle of the row types please... Its really difficult to not pay ROR when you got contracts like Orpiks as recent examples of GM stupidity....

More then you do clearly since you are just making it up. I actually have looked.

One of the best possession players in the league you said....yet he has a 48.4% Corsi....with a 1.00 pdo. Not even close to one of the best in the league. In fact that places him at #302 in the league.

Go ask the Avs fans....he disappears when not on Duchene's wing.

When he goes to arbitration he cant compare to UFA's. His comparables are guys like Hall, Duchene, Landeskog, Seguin, Eberle etc. All who have better numbers than him and make 6 mill or less.

isles in on setoguchi???? umm......ok. We already have 16 forwards with nhl contracts and even if we were to trade say grabner and bailey for a good d-man, Setoguchi still wouldn't make the team.

c'mon Ek, the only rumors that would be out there for isles is the dman we are searching for or a good forward to play on JT's left side.

setoguchi..........good grief

They cant compare him to Kane. Kane would have been UFA.

So try again.

The Dubinsky deal is another glaring example of what is wrong with the NHL... nearly 6 mill per and only put out 50+ pts twice... And people go on here and female dog about the Toews and Kane deals... Gonna be interesting to see what they (CBJ) pay Ryan Johannson...

Thats my (frank)ing point... the compression gap between average joe in the NHL and superstar is too damn close... There should be a significant difference in salary for the superstars who draw fans, pts and wins and the average NHLer who is no where near elite... and there isnt... thats a big big problem...

I'm ok with players trying to get the best salary way more than players getting a NMC then demanding a trade to only a couple destinations.
