Value of: Draisaitl´s next contract

[WesMcCauley]

What do we think?
77 points in 82 games in the reg season. 11 points in 11 games in the playoffs. If Edm is signing him for 8 years he will get alot of money.

[Baemon Severson*]

8x7.

 

[belair]

Probably something in the $6.5m AAV range. Bit more than Barkov.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

8 years $52 million or a $6.5 million per AAV.

 

[Flukeshot]

Is he better off betting on himself and signing a 2 yr deal for something like $6m then going big next time?

 

[AuraSphere]

I'd be surprised if it's anything less than 7M

 

[DarthProbert]

Well, Eberle and RNH got 6, so 7-8 isn't out of the question.

 

[TBC]

Short term maybe they can get him at a 6M but long term easily 8+

 

[InfinityIggy]

7m per. Not sure on the length.

 

[T1K]

6 yrs X 7.2 AAV

 

[howkie]

If he can get around 7 mil long term he should take it. No point risking go bridge, who knows, maybe dont play hockey in 2 years??

 

[V13]

8 years $52 million or a $6.5 million per AAV.

I think it will be more than that, The guy is a stud , just had a 77pts season at 21 and will only get better and likely produce at a PPG rate or close for many more season

I say 7m minimum but it won't surprise me if it's 7.5-8 unless he take a himetown discount.

Edit : Not to mention he has 11pts in 11 games right now in the playoffs. Great player

 

[IranCondraAffair]

He is going to get Tarasenko money. 7.5 M in my opinion

 

[danielpalfredsson]

7M would be roughly the equivalent to the Hall/Nugent-Hopkins contracts that they gave out in the past.

My guess would be 6.5M-7Mx6 years.

Well, Eberle and RNH got 6, so 7-8 isn't out of the question.

RNH and Hall both signed for about 9.33% and 10% of the cap. 73M cap right now, so on the low end the equivalent would be about 6.8M.

 

[WesMcCauley]

Probably something in the $6.5m AAV range. Bit more than Barkov.

I dont see him getting under 7 if he sign for 8 years.

 

[A91]

8x7.

Agreed.

 

[Roof Daddy]

8 year deal, 7-7.5 per would be my guess. If we could get Connor to sign same term @ 9.7 per I would be very happy.

 

[mouser]

Guessing 6 years @ $7-7.5m.

Buys up a couple UFA years. I'm doubting we'd see an 8 year deal without pushing the AAV higher.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Nice to see people are actually respecting Drai.
You have to think he will get 7.5per long term.
Guy will be centering his own line moving forward and has proven he can produce without Connor.

 

[Lunatik]

He'll get 6-6.75, same range as other top young players have gotten in the last couple years.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Do you think someone could poison pill him on an offersheet like Calgary tried with ROR? It leaves Edmonton with nothing but bad options.

Year 1: 6.5M
Year 2: 11.6M
9.1 AAV and draft pick compensation: 2 X 1st, 1X2nd, 1x3rd.


Two years of RFA remaining and a Qualifying offer of 11.6M during the years Edmonton is trying to re-sign McDavid. Pretty frustrating thing to do.

You think the Oilers match?

 

[Ainec]

they gave RNH and Eberle that 6x6 they might as well try it one more time because I'm positive this one won't backfire


8x7, if Drai is the player that he is from what we've seen in the playoffs and this season it's a steal in 1-2 years

 

[A1LeafNation]

8 x 8

 

[YennoItFlames]

I think he'll sign 6.5-7.5 x 7/8 years or or a bridge like 4-5 x 2/3 years

 

[MDCSL]

I think the oilers really try to get draisaitl and mcdavid to sign a kucherov deal - go hard for a cup for 3/4 years and then pay out the big bucks.
