How do you make him fit with the cap though?

13 Mill a year would convince him to stay

getting EK would deff show him that the stars are serious, i think as the season goes on and seguin has not re-signed the pressure will mount of the GM and he will give OTT heskeinan+ for EK.

Spezza and Methot are gone next year for a combined hit of around 12 mil. Seguin gets a 4 mil raise to 9.5, karlsson gets a 3.5 raise to 10 mil, and Patches gets a 2.5 raise to 7 mil. They will be able to afford it

It’s been reported that he wants to be given a reason to stay besides money aka being a serious contender. Even one of these big trades will help

projected cap for that year will be approx 82 mil, that gives you 42 mil to sign up 11 players to your roster and all 3 big names will cost stars approx 28 million leaving 14 to sign up 8 more, there only upside is dallas is one of 5 teams that are non taxable states so stars could possibly get there salary down a little when signing

In Dallas, they are all Stars!
