Brandon Saad for 6-7MM a year?

Have we lost our minds?

- ImThatGuy

He's in line for a 4-5 million dollar bridge deal. And his play this post season has been great. He's on par with Kane who is paid over 5 mil

I'd bet if Chicago offers him 5 over 6 he'd take it.

I could see him signing for that, I could also see him forcing a bridge deal like Subban/Johansen have done recently. It's becoming a trend

I'd dk who you could bring up to compete with Hossa for that award.

He is a HOF player

At 36 is out playing guys younger

They all get way more credit than Hossa ever does.

you ask the average hockey fan to name the 10 best players in the last 10 years, hossa gets next to no consideration, hence under-rated

Players 6-10 are interchangeable but you're right he probably wouldn't get in there

I would argue that point, solid bottom six forwards aren't always "plug and go" types of players.

Back to back 60 point seasons.

Has 11 points in 15 gp during the current playoffs.

I'm not sure what you've been watching but Hossa is still a very good player at age 36

- dadeadhead


I'm glad you "qualified" your support of his play by adding his age, Hossa has been an amazingly talented player throughout his career, but if you haven't noticed his lack of ability to create on his own, than, "I don't know what you're watching"

Can we lottery protect that pick for next year (say if it's 1 through 10, the pick moves to next season)?

If not, with where Buffalo will likely finish next year, I would rather have the pick, especially if it's a top 3 pick.

6-10 as in top ten players over the last decade.

It's been done before. Remember the conditional Islanders 1st round pick?

Yes but that is a condition both teams need to agree to.
