While it is probably easily matched.... Yes please.

Also, Gardiner is probably going to LTIRetire.

Interesting idea, but does your owner really want to get into a money war with Montreal?
Suzuki "should" be locked up before it gets to that point, but you never know.

If you actually want to succeed with an offer sheet, give Primeau a $4M offer.

Yeah, Montreal matches that offer. Also, you're paying to get rid of Gardiner. No one is giving up an asset for that contract.

True but he probably LTIRs anyways

I get the revenge factor and Suzuki is probably going to be a really good player. But idk if he’s a 10m type player. Would rather spend that money elsewhere. MTL likely matches in this case but I don’t want to be stuck with the contract if they don’t.

Nothing about Suzuki says he's a $10M+ per year player. Nothing. Look at all the players that are better and are making less.. Point, Barkov, Schiefele, Draisaitl, MacKinnon, Barzal, Aho, etc.

Montreal didn't overpay on an offersheet to Aho, Carolina won't do that for Suzuki.

$4M to Primeau? I doubt they match. Not with Price and Allen in the picture. That's a ridiculous contract for a goaltender with a handful of NHL games.

No, I meant the original Suzuki offer. You're right, they let Primeau walk for $4M.
