Goodrow is buy-out friendly. Rangers aren’t doing this

I like the chaos that offersheets cause

Florida can easily match that and the Rangers will buy out Goodrow before trading Kakko just to get rid of him.

Lundell has to be willing to accept the OS also. This offer is like pretty much what he'll get from the Panthers when you factor taxes into it. So its an easy no for him. (Logically speaking)

Going to SJ to be a bottom dweller for the foreseeable future making slightly more money but more taxes OR stay on a perennial cup contender and make a little less money now maybe but more in the long term.... Can't even say the weather is better as a main factor either.

That's why if you do OS someone, the money has to be sooooo much more than the player deserves for them to realistically accept. Just like UFA's, you have to overpay.

Want Lundell? Offer minimum 6.5-7M. Panthers couldn't match and Its a significant overpay that would make any player think twice about. Problem is you better be confident Lundell is a top end player because everyone thought KK was going to be amazing in Carolina and we all know how that is turning out.

I dont see how they can afford Lundell unless the plan is to let Reinhardt walk

They have $21 million in cap space. Okposo and Tarasenko walking more than makes up the difference.

Trades, UFA's, RFA's, etc. there is lots of time between now and the start of next year. Things can change a lot. They could sign him now and have like 4-5 months to figure it out.

The owners say "as if!".
They are not going to self spike rfa salaries, the only time they can control them!??

They also have two biggish players to sign, one of which will eat close to half that space.
