So basically Ryan Nugent-Hopkins gets a $250,000 raise, Noway he's signing that cheaply. There will be quite a few teams that would gladly give him at least $6,850,000 over 7 seasons Detroit being one of them.

Quoting: DiehardRedWingsFan58

Do you really think, at this point in his career, he cares more about roughly 500k more a year or a legit chance at playoff runs and a cup? Because he won't be getting those chances any time soon in Detroit.

However, I do agree some competitive teams may also be able to offer him more than the Oil, could be enticing. With what everyone saw with Vegas' immediate success, I do wonder if Nuge could be enticed to go be a top fwd in Seattle. They will have the space, and may compete right away. Right next door to where he grew up in Van too.

Hyman isn't leaving the Leafs. He will end his career here in Toronto
