WildCard Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 @BuffaloSabres 1m1 minute ago We've agreed to terms with @Jack_Eichel11 on an 8-year extension with an AAV of $10 million. Quote
WildCard Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 So the NHL cap is $75M. At a cap hit of $10M, Eichel holds 13.33% of the cap. That is much more along the lines of the Penguins with Malkin and Crosby than it is with the Hawks and Oilers with Toews, Kane, and McDavid Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Posted October 3, 2017 Tell that to Crosby, or McDavid I just don't see it, but whatever Quote

3putt Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 In related news Zemgus Girgensens sent to Rochester until after practice tomorrow. Nobody recalled. Quote
Pokey Jones Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 So that answers all the stuff about does he want to be here. Step one done, it all centers on Eichel now. Compared to other deals, this is a good number if he is what we think he is. Quote
Andrew Amerk Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 In related news Zemgus Girgensens sent to Rochester until after practice tomorrow. Nobody recalled. Huh? Quote
dudacek Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) Huh? You know, ankles and stuff. On a more serious note, how the ###### are we ever going to afford Casey? There's no way he will ever sign for less. Hear he is already making plans for four years in Minnesota then UFA. Edited October 4, 2017 by dudacek Quote
woods-racer Posted October 4, 2017 Report Posted October 4, 2017 Huh? Gus took Eichel out last year. High ankle sprain. Quote
