Seattle have the option of : Chiarot Mete or Juulsen which one would they pick ?

Kotkaniemi --> Bridge deal if he plays in the AHL in 2020-2021. If he plays in the NHL in 2020-2021, raise is AAV money
Poehling will play in the AHL in 2020-2021 so cant really ask for a raise
Fleury gets a bridge deal

Domi contract --> Signed in 2020
Mete contract --> Signed in 2020 bridge deal
Juulsen/Evans/Vejdemo signed in 2020

YOU CAN HAD MTL 1ST RD PICK IN 2020 ( RAYMOND / PERFETTI / ROSSI / HOLTZ )

I don't mean to be a smart a$$ but do we need to protect Weber in the expansion draft?
I don't think Seattle takes him, and so what if they do. The only reason we protect him IMO is to protect Weber's pride.
The point will be mute if Juulsen or Mete are not progressing to where we want them to be, but if either one of them steps up in 2020-21 we would have have to seriously consider exposing Weber to keep 1 or the other, especially if we are signing Petry for 5 years.

The Lehkonen contract sure is long. It’s not bad, you just don’t see those type of contracts much at all. Everything looks pretty good, I’d think it’s more likely that Petry’s contract is a bit shorter, with a bit higher AAV (and probably what the team would rather). You’d probably have room for the higher AAV, since I’d expect Seattle to choose Chiarot or Byron. IMO they’ll also both become expendable because of Ylönen and Norlinder (with Ylönen being closer to the NHL).

Everything else is completely on point.

Edit: I especially think that Seattle would be interested in Chiarot, since he’ll have pretty good value, and will be easy to trade because he has 1 year left.

Not bad but I think some of them are underpaid

-Danault closer to 6x6m$ (Comparable Brock Nelson)
-Gallagher closer to 7x7 (comparable Anders Lee)
-Petry 3x5.75m$ (Giving him 5 years is bad since he'll be 34 when his next contract kicks in)

Gallagher would be brutal at that price and term

I have to agree with that and Gally is my favorite player. He plays a hard game that will wear him down

I'll start with Petry, yeah maybe 5 years is too long, but on a 3 years deal he will ask for 7M, he is almost if not top pairing caliber. We see him all year, he is just getting better. He's a fluide skater, doesn't show any sign of slowing down. If we can sign him 3-4 years UNDER 6M go for it, but its a risk I'm welling to take on Jeff.

Danault need to take a little discount, on the free market 100% agree 6x6M. 5.5M is the maximum I'll be welling to give him

Gallagher wont keep up for 7 years, he is in is best years right now. 7M sure, but 4 years, more years he takes, less AAV

Agree on danault and Gallagher. But I’d much rather petry at 7. That’s only a slight upgrade from now and it’s only 3 year.

For Lehkonen, he's my favorite player ( lol ) and Bergevin loves him too, and Claude Julien. He can play anywhere in the line-up, Sissons is an exemple of bottom six player who signed long term.

I agree with Chiarot, Vegas picked Emelin with one year left and flipped him for a 3rd rd pick. Chiarot have more value than Emelin, but if Mete step up in 2020-2021, Seattle might take him and keep him for their D core in the year coming.

Mete might step up, but then I’d probably protect him instead of Fleury, especially if Juulsen is good to go, since we only need one of Juulsen/Fleury.

The only thing is that Gallagher will be offered that on the open market and we can't afford to lose him so he'll get 7 years even if its not ideal, just like Anders Lee

I love him but that will sink the team. And can’t see any team giving him 7x7

Gallagher have the upper hand, hopefully he takes a discount for us. Bergevin trust him when he gaves him that long contract at 3.75M ( that turns out a great deal ), but he needs to take a discount, but I agree we CANT lose him

Like Marc said, the team before is job, if Gallagher ask too much, he'll let him walk and lose is job to be sure we dont have a bad contract in our book for years

Its too bad these guys are all coming due next year. If it was this year it would have been easier to low ball these guys and blame in on Covid and a flat cap. Watch how many guys sign low dollar bridge deals this year so they can get paid more next year. For example I would not be surprised if Domi signs a 1-2 year $4.5M deal to get pass this flat cap year then go for his payday after that.
I think a lot of agents will be pushing their clients to sign short contracts this off season.
