Love the idea of keeping Stastny. Does he want to stay?
Maybe some wheeling and dealing brings us surprises.Can't help but think of the giant strides Kyle C and Jack R will make next year...
- Hockey Biltong
Can we afford him? How much term and per year? Don't want to overpay on a 32 1/2 yo player like St. Louis did the last time. He is a great player and a great hockey mind but at 7 mill, forget it. How much term and dollars? 4 mill for 3 years??
Here are the players at the end of this season that have contracts up for negotiation. RFA's: Forward: Lowry, Armia, Tanev, Dano, UFA's: Statsny, Matthias, Hendricks,
D: RFA's: Trouba, Morrisey, Poolman, Morrow UFA: Enstrom
G: RFA: Helle UFA: Hutch
I think it is safe to say the potential larger deals would be Trouba if we can sign him, Morrisey and Helle, Statsny (maybe). Eveyone else would be less money like Lowry, Poolman, Armia, Tanev, (Morrow?)
Matthias, Hendricks, Dano, Enstrom all gone.
Bear in mind that next year, Laine, Connor perhaps Myers need a deal next year as well.
