What.

That 2nd might not even be that low tho

Seves is good

from what i'm hearing hughes is gonna get more than that
Getzlaf contract is yikes... if you want to slightly overpay him do like 3.75 not 5.5
letang you will probably have to pay more for, maybe like 5.75
Gaudreau contract is gonna be VERY painful in the future. think skinner-type overpay
niederreiter looks good
anderson might get more if he does really well but the signing doesnt make sense unless he's able to clear waivers
rutta prolly stays with TBL
severson instead of doing that just get a first straight up

I think Hughes' contract will look more like Dahlin's 6x3 deal

Hughes is already paving his driveway for the money trucks. Probably Brady-esque deal.
I like Getzlaf, Gaudreau and Neiderreiter....but not at those contracts.
Getzlaf will like stay a Duck.
Gaudreau should be $7.5-8m for 6 years.
Would love Clutterbuck at league min salary.
Chara and Ruuta should not be needed.

And Severson trade probably doesn't get it done.

Detroit trade is not a fit.

I agree but Detroit isn't the right team they need a LHD.

Exactly this. He's a good player and the value is fine, it's just not a fit.

How has Leddy been?

Pretty damn good, honestly way better than I expected... DeKeyser, not so much...

I've been impressed. The left side of our defense has to be the oldest in the NHL Oesterle is the youngest at 29. They are constantly talking to the younger players.

That's a low return for Severson. Hughes at 4.5m is not happening. He'll get a lot more than that. Where did Bratt go? Why did you sign 3 old players who will suck or be retired by next season?

Zero chance Hughes' ego even considers anything less than a 7 handle ... Brady deal a good comp, good call there.
