Blue Jackets are under pressure to get Saad signed tonight. Multiple teams considering offer sheets north of $6M

So, if Saad gets north of 6 mil what should O'Reilly get?

The hate for Dano is bordering on asinine


It's getting dangerously close to "Eichel is the 4th/5th best forward in the draft" territory.

Reinhart to be bought out if he only gets 49.........


We've reached a new low.

Because our prospects have set such a high standard of excellence over the years..


Lest we forget the great playoff performance of Gragnani

I agree, I think he wanted out of COL and set his price at 8 mil to do just that.

The guy who could be Saad like is Girgensons...and I don't want to bring down the wrath of Goose...

If you listened to his interview, he wanted the chance to be the guy it seem to me at least. He has the chance to do it here.

I don't think he wanted out.

It was more he wanted to have a much bigger role and that just was gonna happen with Landeskog, Mac, Duchene, and EJ.

Still need some defensemen here before I can say we look like a playoff team

I'd put money on the Ducks again if I was going to Vegas.

40 on the Ducks
40 on Chicago
20 on the Sabres (just for sh!t's and giggle)

I's also put 20 on the Bills for Super Bowl and AFC East Champs.

I wouldn't.

The West is just way to strong IMO.

To be fair Girgensons hasn't had the offensive seasons like Saad, but I think he could this year on the top 6. I also don't think he would demand a huge contract, he doesn't strike me as that kind of guy, but it is a business...

I hope we get a solid mid aged, 25-27 year old, mobile, solid LHD either via trade or FA. I'd love Sekera again and I don't usually go back and relive history but he is the best FA D out there.

Told there's "significant" interest already in Alexander Semin. Becomes a fascinating option on the free agent market.

Tampa's right up there and only getting better. Couple of shrewd moves could put them over the top. Watch Drouin have a monster year

That's just it to me. The will beat the crap out of each other in the playoffs. I think Tampa has a smooth sail to the Cup finals next season if they stay healthy.

No but he just turned 21.

Honestly I said this the other day.

Offer 4.5 per over 8 years and get it over with.

If he and Risto take another big step next year I bet that's what Murray tries to do.

Then watch them get something great in return, probably enough to put them over the top.

That management team knows their poop.
