Value of: Brady Tkachuk next contract

[William Hylander]

Curious to see what fans think Brady will get on his next deal. He's up after this year from his rookie deal.

Leading the league in hits and shots, leading his team in points.

I'm thinking he goes in between 7-9 mill but I can't narrow it down more than that so hoping the board discussion will narrow it down.

Can't really discuss numbers without discussing years. Do you think he's getting a bridge or straight to long term?

I'd imagine the Sens would try to bridge him short term since the costs of covid, then pay him a hefty deal after while hes still an RFA. So I'd say short term toward the end or your spectrum. 2-3years 6/7mil.

If it s a bridge it should be lower than that. Laine got 6.8 and had outproduced Tkachuck every year

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Bridge deal somewhere around what Cirelli got maybe?

 

[RSeen]

Send should be trying to get him on a long-term deal given his surface level stats not representative of his strong play driving.

 

[NjdevilfanJim]

Laine has out produced him in points but not overall game.....If I was Ottawa imo I'd sign him long term high dollar for 10 years the numbers will be difficult as he's shown 40 to 50 points but to get his first crack at FA years you have to pay more 10 years 7 .5 to 9 only because his overall game is solid and he should eventually land point wise over 60 to 70 as Sens improve....If you do Few years and bridge he'll probably walk at free agency

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Bridge deal around 5-5.5 max.

 

[Patagonia]

Contract likely comparable to Matthew 3 years @ $7M. If he doesn’t get close or more from EM, expect him to be gone.

 

[HabsAddict]

Good luck Sens fans and signing Brady to a team friendly contract.

Like his brother, he's going to ask for north of 7 million. WAY north if it's a very long term contract. He's got nothing to lose...and the Sens everything.

Don't be surprised if he get's a 9x7 offer sheet.

 

[2022 Stanley Cup]

Seems like most young franchise stars are aiming for eichel or marner type of contracts but have been settling for bridge deals. I expect a bridge deal given the history of Melnyk being cheap but he may shell out for his franchise star. I would guess 9.5M/5-6 years or 7M/2-3 years.

 

[BondraTime]

Going to be somewhere in the 6.5-7 range for 3 years.

If they somehow belt out a long term deal (not likely) its would be something around 8 x 8/9.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Where the heck is the comp that gets him $9M a year?

Doubt he’ll receive a $9M per deal, but EM being cheap expect him to leave.

 

[KevinRedkey]

Doubt he’ll receive a $9M per deal, but EM being cheap expect him to leave.

The only player Melnyk didn't pay, that has deserved his contract afterwards is Marc Stone. He was fine paying Chabot and Murray big money. I don't see why he can't have the Brinks truck drive to Brady's house.

 

[MikeK]

Bridge

There it is! Post #13, didn't take long. He will leave like Chabot did when he got 8x8.

 

[wilfred]

Lets say 3 year 6m...with Ottawa its usually year 1 5m, 2 6m, 3 7m
I would much rather 8x8 and get him locked up.
Get it done...it will be better for Ottawa an more money for Tkachuk be a free agent again at 30 to cash in one more time. If he signs a 3year deal I think Ottawa will seriously wonder if he is going to commit long term to this team. The Sens can't make a mistake with this one for the team or the fans.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

8x8

 

[Rec T]

Bridge in the $5-6 million ballpark. With the Covid/salary cap uncertainty & EM needing a crowbar to get his wallet open... BT's not getting paid FU money this time around.

 

[topshelf15]

2 year bridge,then ask again for a long term commitment

 

[Akrapovince]

8 x 7.5 and slap the c on him for incentive.

And promise him a ridiculous next contract before backing out and letting him walk to FA.

Who is going to give up 4 1st round picks and give him 9m per year?

 

[canuckking1]

Perfect player to sign long term. Once Ottawa fixes their powerplay and he matures he’ll be 70ish+ point power winger

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

5x2 would be my guess.

Brady is good, but he isn't skip-the-bridge good. And yes, I definitely think he is going to be a really tough negotiation.

 

[Beville]

3x5 and then see where he ends up after that.
