Good write up Ben. It’s a win for Lou and the team, and it’s good to know Eberle wanted to stay. Both sides benefit from the deal. Now Lou has several other items he needs to address. I really think he should resign Lehner. I’m thinking the same contact as Eberle 5 x 5.5. Also, I think Lou should be preemptive and get Barzal, Pulock, and Toews signed to extensions after July 1 before their price tags keep going up and up. |

He’s great with Barzal. This is a good deal. I would love an explanation from Islanders management on why Brock Nelson got more years and more money with a much less significant body of work. Sure Nelson had a better year last year but Ebs is a far more accomplished player |

You have apparently not watch him play when you are referencing his size. As islander fans we hope Nelson realizes that he has size and can play physical, however he himself has yet to figure that out. |

You should drop that one on the leafs thread. I did a little ring and run after the Raptors won basically saying they are Toronto's true team and they were commenting on it 14 hours later. Feeble minded folk. - streaks
Meh, not a fan of being an ass in other team's threads. That usually just ends up with short bus escapees like RogerRoeper making their way over here and forcing me to read the diarrhea they spray all over my computer screen. |

I think the tweet was hilarious too! My self worth is not tied to my hockey team's success (or lack thereof). |

Thanks!
Agree with all of this. I think Lehner would come in around a very similar AAV and term and dealing with the RFAs a year early would be ideal. From the RFAs perspectives though, it's probably worthwhile to hold off on negotiating and bet on themselves next year. |

Eberle has definitely been a more productive player historically but production in a contract year always heavily impacts a deal. Also centers in general come with a premium and if Nelson walked, there's a big problem down the middle. |
