Wish we would hurry up and resign Dekeyser. Once we get that done if alfie doesn't resign I wouldn't mind offer sheeting Krug. A rh puck moving defensemen. If they can't make a quick trade and we offer 2.5 or so we could get him. Not that holland would offer sheet however but I can dream.

Hey Red Wings fans,

Very random. What radio station are the Red Wings on in Ann Arbor? As of right now Chris Chelios will be doing a book signing at a few B&N's in Michigan in November. Can confirm not in Detroit.

I found WKTA 1050AM but want to be sure.

edit: Got it confirmed. Probably posted this in the wrong thread so apologies.

John Davidson tells #CBJ media franchise offered an eight-year, $46 million deal to Ryan Johansen's camp. Was turned down.

Wow, I seriously don't understand what this kid wants. If you want a long term deal based on one season of production and potential for improvement 5.75AAV for 8 years is a great deal for you. If it's not enough and you want superstar money you're going to have to sign a bridge deal and prove your worth. FFS 5.75 is more than Tavares makes ( I know JT's deal is the exception not the rule, but still.)

As much as I'd like to see RJ hit the trade market ala Turris I really hope no GM meets his (IMO) ludicrous demands.

John Davidson: #CBJ went as long as an 8-year, $46 million offer to Johansen's camp. Both were declined. "We're trying to get this done."

Chris Johnston ‏@reporterchris 4m
John Davidson tells reporters that the #CBJ offered Ryan Johansen $3M AAV over 2 years, $5.33M AAV over 6 years and $5.75M over 8 years.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 2m
When the numbers come out like that, it's a very bad sign. Shows negotiations are going nowhere.

The Ryan Johansen negotiations have officially hit rock bottom

He's not at that point though. Towes and Kane got 6.5 deals and they had 54,69,68 and 72,70 and 88 points. Ry Jo had a 63 point year

The NHL is changing, or should change. There's no reason to wait anymore, it doesn't really benefit the player or the team. Plus this is a much different cap, go ahead and play hardball with your best player - we all know how that works out.

So if gus puts up 60 points this year we should lock him up at 6 million? It gets pricey especially if you have a co7ple young guys who have 1 season

Then you lose him and miss the playoffs, what now?

So just give in to any RFA? He wants a bridge deal worth 6.5. Then every young guy with 1 good year will do that. What if DDK said I wont sign until I get Quincey money? Not too many go from a 63 point season to 6.5 on a short term deal.

Backstrom also 4th over all put up 69,88,101 and got a big deal of his RFA contract. Duchene is the best comparison and had 55,67 then a bad 28 took a bridge deal worth 3.5

and now he's packing his bags and going home

Actually Toews/Kane 2nd deals were 6.3M x 5 yrs

Bobrovsky got a 5.625M AAV deal over 2 years coming off a Vezina and 1st NHL Allstar Team year

Johansen wants 2 yrs and 6M AAV for 1 63 pt season
