Brawndo

He is three years older, will be 31 his new deal starts, and the market has shifted away from paying goalies. There will be exceptions to this rule of course, but I imagine it will be for the goalies with multiple years until they turn 30

Especially since the offer was Askarov, 15th and 24th OA supposedly. Trotz was willing to do this for Michkov, they probably ask for one of Cozens, JJP, Quinn and one of Kulich, Benson, and Savoie plus a pick. If a deal could be worked out I imagine they can play them both for 3-4 years and once their contract demands get too high move the lesser of the two for assets

The NJ Devils are the biggest competition and they can offer a starter back as part of the part of the package in Vanacek and would not mind signing him to an extension. Sorokin who is three years younger and on the same level as Hellebuyck in terms of talent just signed an 8 year 8.25 million AAV extension. I doubt Hellebuyck gets the same deal much less more than that

With the market for pending UFA Wingers being so poor, I wonder if moving his cap hit and trying to sign Tatar to a one year over pay is the right play.

EROD to Florida on a 4 year deal

There is also 4.57 Million in potential performance bonuses that can be earned by players on ELCs that has to be taken into consideration towards this years cap. I do trust this FO to make the moves necessary if they want to bring someone else in though.

Was college roommates with Okposo

Waddell mentioned the they are acquiring Tony D’Angelo still

Tatar

Is this what you are talking about? Because he followed up with this Tom Webster, who has more inside information on this board then anyone else, has mentioned they reached out to Anaheim last summer about Gibson, who did not want to move his family from the West Coast last year. While we are on the subject of Chad supposedly not having any inside information, let’s review a few of things he has broke. That Kahun was the return in the EROD Trade. He broke Krueger’s Firing the night before it happened. WGR even gave him credit the morning it happened. He broke the Karamanos Hiring as Associate GM before it happened. He was the first to mention that Adams and Karamanos wanted to expand the Analytics Department. He broke the Tage Extension an hour before Kevin Weekes tweeted it. Weekes was first national Insider with the information He broke the Cozens extension as well.

Offseason Champions 2022 and 2023

As I come here to post another Detroit Signing

Kerfoot to Arizona 2 years 3.5 million

He doesn’t have any trade protection. Sorokin, who is one of the few goalies in the same tier as him, just signed an 8 year 8.25 Million AAV Extension and he is three years younger. Hellebuyck’s Next Deal will not exceed that

What the hell is Yzerman’s Plan?

Compher to Detroit 5 years 5.1 Million
