Yes, 8 years at over $9M per.

I'd say a 1 percent chance they sign him at that figure. The peguals will be extremely cautious giving out any long term deals, especially a near max deal.

It would put them at 34 million for four players okposo, skinner, eichel, Hamilton. Yea thats a hard pass for me, unless the kraken can take skinner or okposo.

That's an astounding stretching of logic, wow.

Arturs Irbe is the best Latvian goalie of all time. Should he be in the Hockey Hall of Fame as well?

Once again, a stretch in logic.

I get your point though.

It's literally that easy.
- TheSabresTaco


Did you see any of our goals above replacement by position?

I want to fight to keep Rhino for selfish reasons. However, our defense is just killing us. We can probably take a loss of a center, but we need to upgrade def badly. Think I could watch my boy go score 30 for another team if we can fix this and make the playoffs.

The stats say Ristolainen is a -3.5 in terms of goals above replacement. Eakin is also a -3.5.

Skinner on Jack's wing will be fine (I Hope). Seattle isn't taking him. Okposo may be someone they would though.

IF Samson has to go, maximize return. Use a 2nd and one of our AHL d prospects to move Okposo. From there, I think you have enough to really invest in the D.

You're right (again, I hope) that Pegs are leary of signing long term max contracts. That being said, if you're going to do it, Douggie is the type of player you do it for.

You've got 3 defenders already. Go sign McCabe. Then the real work starts. What do you do with the rest of the spots? I don't think you need to trade Sam Reinhart to make that defense playoff caliber.

I don't think we need to trade him to put together a playoff caliber D. I'm just worried with Dahlin's contract coming up that the money won't be there.

Purge these two
Profit

It's only two steps.

You're probably replacing Risto. You don't need to do that with Eakin.

If Cong feels like putting together a projected roster using EWs numbers, trading Risto's full salary and demoting Okposo and Eakin, see what you can get with that.

if dahlin continues this play, you can probably pair him with anyone and come out ahead in top pair minutes

i think the key acquisition is a 2nd pair guy who can go at least even with anyone

and for the love of god end the risto torture. he's getting destroyed even in a reduced role.

With 3yrs of experience, he needs to pick it up though. We shall see how much Star not in front affected his game, or has he hit what he is gonna be. Allen doesn't see that 5th year option, his extension is signed before camp ends.
