Also TB should be paying Point 9M X 8, so they can buzz off
I think that the Nylander contract is a starting point, and (even though Leafs fans insisted that Nylander was worth more than Burns) Point is way better than Nylander... So you'd have to think at least 9, yeah? TB fans insist he will be bridged, which I guess is possible, but man, that would be brutal for back-to-back 30G seasonsUnless he signs for a discount like Kucherov did

If Point bridges he is either blackmailed by TB's management or he is high risk taker. If you ask me I wouldn't bridge in any circumstance if I would be Point.
Because it suits their argument more. That is pretty much it.I don’t get why people think young players would take a bridge contract or a team friendly contract when they’re already elite players in the league. Marner, Matthews, Point etc. should be going for as much as they can get for as long as they can get. Players at the ends of their careers can take discounts, like Jumbo. He’s made over 108 million dollars in his career.
What severity? We don't even know what the injury is. Lets not get worried about stuff we have no idea about.the severity of this injury concerns me
the last thing we need is a superstar contract with end-stage forsberg health
any injury that keeps a player out for 3 games heading into a break(and obviously hampering him in a 4th game prior) is concerning, but also announcing the player being out ahead of time is out of the norm for the Sharks so that adds to the concern.What severity?

i hope soI thinking you are reading too much into it. If you ask me, I would rather them do this and have Karlsson 100% for the playoffs than risk any chances. There is good chance we end up playing Vegas in the first round and having a healthy roster is going to the most important thing for us.

The way he's played this season? No way do we need to worry like that yet.the severity of this injury concerns me

I can’t wait until he signs so we can be done with hearing about it. It’s incredible how many Senators fans are still insistent that he wants to play elsewhere, citing rumors and rumblings that they hear around their small city.
Those people are making assumptions based on what he said over a year back and still hanging on to the Hedman connection. The fact that EK65 is already talking contract extension shows that he wants to stay. The only 'risk' he would have had not talking extension is that we trade him before the TDL if DW got the gut feeling that EK65 walks in the off-season.
Everything he has said since he joined us makes me think that he likes it here and wants to stay. Unless I see proof that he is unhappy and wants to go elsewhere, I am going to continue believing that he wants to stay.
San Jose has everything he wants other than super stardom. It's literally one of the most desirable places to live in North america if you ha e the money to do so.To add to this, Karlsson did say he wanted to sign a lob term contract in a place he is comfortable in.
As of today, the only 2 places in the NHL, he can be comfortable in are San Jose or Ottawa.
He’s put out that he’s the loyal type and is more geared to comfort and team atmosphere. I’m sure that DW has done what he can to sell EK on this area. To wit, DW doesn’t tend to trade for those where there is a question they will not sign. Hasso and Pete did their part as well.
Dude, you're telling me that someones friend who knows a guy who works out with Karlssons buddy sometimes isnt a legit source?I can’t wait until he signs so we can be done with hearing about it.

The City, Napa, Monterey Bay, Tahoe are all driving distance. He can hop on a 30 minute flight and go play Hollywood in LA if he wants.
Nobody in their right mind would pick Ottawa over all of that. Tampa has a better hockey team and probably a better night life lol.
