The pending free agent will be looking to sign a long-term deal in the $4 to $5 million per season range, up from his $3.5 million salary. Kuzma notes Karl Alzner‘s five-year deal at a $4.65 million cap hit.
Karl Alzner career stats (6.17 cap%)
NHL Totals 609 GP 19 G 102 A 121 PTS 183 PIM
Erik Gudbranson career stats
NHL Totals 355GP 12G 37A 49PTS 391PIM
Radko Gudas career stats (signed last season 4 years 3.35AAV)(4.59 cap%)
NHL Totals 284GP 18G 53A 71PTS 475PIM
Brenden Dillon career stats (signed 3 years ago 5 years 3.27 AAV)(4.58 cap%)
NHL Totals 382GP 15G 45A 60PTS 353PIM
Gudas and Dillon are better comparables then Alzner.
Cap hit 75 million (may or may not go up)X 4.59 percent. About 3.45 per season. I would take him at 3.45 or even 3.6 but there is no way he is worth 4-5.

Quebec city says Bon Jour - VANTEL
public funds...
with the salary cap, everyone knows the league is making money, more and more every year.
the NHL doesn't let its players go to the Olympics.
wouldn't seeing your country represented be in the best interest of the public/fans?
love it when bettman starts throwing sht out there.

Ya, I don't mind Gudbranson that much for a sheltered role, so anything under 4 I would resign him – 3.75 x 4 years would be good, though probably unrealistic. If he was seeking more than 4, I'd want to see him traded and see what he could bring back.

I went to see a Sens game a few years back and it sucked, gotta drive out to Kanata and the parking took forever. it's a horrible set up but it would be a shame if they lost the team. In my mind, Arizona shouldn't have a team, and the attendance numbers in Carolina and Florida are horrific - they don't deserve teams either. Seattle, KC and Hamilton would all be candidates.

I think I've posted this before, but it's a pretty enlightening look at how teams strong arm the cities/public into funding stadiums that the teams/league then make money off.

haven't watched it yet, but teams and the league like keeping the fans as emotional hostages.
fans and most people will spend excessively on entertainment and less on essentials.
as B_L listed a few alternative locations, it is funny that everyone knows the league doesn't want relocation of floundering teams, they want expansion money.

10 American NHL cities can barely get 9000 asses in their seats for home games and the idiot Buttman wants to move Ottawa because they are a few thousand shy of a sellout...
But yet FLA...ARZ..DAL...CAR...stay right where they are...

If they could get 2- 2nd round picks back or Conditional if the team reaches the SCF and he plays 50% of the games 1st and 2nd. Sold IMO.

One glaring omission...
All of the above have achieved nothing.
No cups the only comparable that counts.

Thats an NFL ploy besides the Flames owners spinning it to line their pockets to an advantage only. New arenas or stadiums do not generate more tax revenues nor economic growth but rather relocate them.

In a few weeks we'll be out of the playoff picture for good. Chances are Guddy is gonna get moved.
