I could see Suter getting a contract like that for 2 years as he still has something left in the tank. The Parise one seems way too high though. He was a 4th liner/scratch the end of the season for the Wild. He showed he had something left in the tank in the playoffs, but I don't see him getting more than a 1 year $1.5M offer at most. It could even be lower than that if it's for a contending team which is what I assume both of them will be looking for.

Yeah, I had the same conversation with my friend earlier today. However, I think Parise is only effective if he can play top-six minutes so it will be hard for him to get to a contender. You are right though, he'll probably sign for far less than what I've put.

I have a question for you that I’ve been wanting to ask a Kings fan. What would you be willing to give up for Zuccarello, if anything? He has a NMC this year, so it’s somewhat irrelevant but I could see him filling that LW spot for the kings. I could see us retaining 1M or so.

So the future Kings lines (1-2 years from now if everything goes according to plan) looks like it will be something like : L1: Turcotte-Byfield-Kaliyev; L2: Iafallo-Kopitar-Arvidsson; L3: Andersson-Vilardi-Kempe L4: Madden-JAD-Thomas.

I think Zucs doesn't really fit what they want, which is a 1-2 year top-6 player (on a contract less than 2 years) to be a temporary fill until one of their prospects can take their spot. If Zucs was around $3M he'd be perfect for a playoff team with a closing window gearing to go the distance, but that's not the Kings right now.

Ok cool, thanks for the detail. Yeah Zuccs contract just seems to be 1 year too much and 2M too expensive...for anyone not even just the Kings. He’s still very good obviously, but tough pill to swallow in a flat cap. I was just kinda thinking that since he’s not a Guerin signing and given the events of today, I’m wondering if BG would like him gone. So I started looking at places that may be looking for a LW vet, and Kings made some sense.

Like you said, maybe a contender. And maybe next year when his NMC drops to a 10 team.
