Thats the thing...what exactly has he done that would get him extra $$ in arbitration.
- Sabresfan-365

What exactly has he done that warrants him turning down any offer the Sabres make and choosing arbitration? I almost think it's a play to get out of town?

Larsson over the past 2 seasons has the most D zone start % of any Sabre.

He's basically been the Ristolainen of our forward core without the crazy minutes (or staying healthy)

i think it would push 10-10.5 on an 8 year deal


wouldnt shock me if they went the kane/toews route.

3 year deal at 7 mil now and then a massive deal .

I would like it if they did it, but I don't think Eichel would.

If anything he waits until after this year and signs a massive deal after a great year

Every draft analyst I read has this kid going at picks 2 or 3.

2. C Casey Mittelstadt | Green Bay Gamblers, USHL | 6’0, 201 | 11/22/98: No
draft-eligible player exemplifies infectious leadership the way this Minnesotareared
super scorer does, and there’s a strong chance Mittelstadt will end up within
a select group of prospects to challenge Nolan Patrick for the top slot. Size, speed,
grace, vision, power and enthusiasm are just a few words one throws around when
dissecting his game, and it will be on display for the University of Minnesota in the
fall of 2017. Mittelstadt is a money player with a deadly shot, using his size and
lower body strength to step into it with NHL-level velocity. He can also make flashy
plays and use a dizzying array of puck skills to turn defenders inside-out before
threading the needle with a crisp pass. Mittelstadt can play both center and wing,
but he exploits his acute sense for finding and acquiring pucks from either position.
He led the USHL in scoring as a rookie before returning to high school, where his bid
to lead Eden Prairie to a state AA title fell just short.



We could have done a lot worse. Like Rasmussen.

could be. its why i thought maybe hed want the 3 year deal as well. it gets him a big raise but you figure if he and the team has any sort of playoff success over those 3 years he could ask for pretty much anything at the end of it.

Like an 11 year deal of sorts. The risk of course is that we dont know whats going to happen to contracts after the next lockout (which is when his would be up i guess)
