WOW big trade! Not sure that gets it done though, probably have to add yet. I think Kreider is going to want more. and Kassian i think is signing 3.25 by 4. We just cant afford Herti and Bonino, ditch one.

If Kassian keeps up this pace hes getting at least 4 mill a year
I think Nurse gets a bit more
Bear isnt signing for 8 years
Kreider gets more than 6 mill, also doubt he goes to EDM
Bonnino has been one of Nashvilles best F this year, they arent trading him for Kris Russel
Not even close on the San Jose trade

Lol 3 million at 4 years for a plug who takes bad penalties and cant put up half as many points as McDavid while playing on the same line as him and getting ridiculously sheltered minutes at 55% offensive zone starts... Edmonton is better off just finding random dudes out of european leagues and signing them to entry level deals the next 4 years instead, and they probably won't take dumb penalties and get suspended either

Bro no, you want Hertl I want Yamamoto Broberg and that first.

Any team signing Kassian for 4 mill I would feel real bad for

I agree, but if the man has 20+ goals and 55+ points this season, not a chance he gets under 4, especially because teams go wild for grit these days and teams overpay in FA

That certainly does not get the best forward on San Jose.

He's being McZoomed, as much as I like Zack he's not worth over $2.5 x 2.

I don't think "ridiculously sheltered minutes" means what you think it means.

For sure. I just feel bad for the team that signs him for that.... Even if it is Edmonton. He is ok, but certainly benefiting from his linemates and role. He is still a 4th line guy in my mind.

I 100% agree, but its free agency and chances are, a team buys way too high on him after this season. Reminds me a bit of the David Clarkson situation after he had that big year in NJ

That's fine, as long as it isn't the Oilers. Maroon thought he could get more in free agency too, turns out every GM in the league knows who Connor McDavid is and how he elevates his linemates.
