Big mistake that is. Either DW knows the cap is going up even more than previously discussed or he know Tavares is no longer an option and wanted to lock Kane up. Either way he screwed this one up

Honestly, Sharks need him and he played well. I’m ok with it. Watch, DW will find a way to stay in on Tavares.
OR, Tavares might be re-signing with NYI. DW and Lou are pretty close, wouldn’t doubt Lou telling DW that Tavares is as good as re-signed.

Fire DW!
Then hire him back so you can FIRE HIM again!
Hire and fire him for each million and each year of this travesty!
Happy to have Kaner back. But it’s a mistake. He’s injury prone. But he provides speed, grit, and goal scoring. When he’s in the lineup, which is never. And all that money we could’ve spent on other assets like John Tavares who was FOR SURE gonna be a shark but now will settle for being a Maple Leaf. And I can’t get over Kane’s baggage. But he was young and stupid, making millions of dollars so at least I understand. But I don’t forgive! f*** him! He’s so good, he and Timo mean we can bash heads and score goals on multiple lines! So stoked! And so angry!
Do I sound like a real sharks fan? I feel like I do....

Watch the market for him be so much lower than what we signed him for.
If Kane’s worth 49mil wtf is Hertl gonna ask for now?

Terrible contract, but it doesn’t mean we’re out of the running for Tavares.

It is what I thought it would be. If there's no clause, it's fine.

Absolutely. You give up a 1st, you overpay and you gamble on term. I like Wilson and he's done well so far but if that's true, he deserves to get fired for that signing alone.
He held all the cards and was in the position to put pressure on Kane because of the 1st. Honestly, if Kane wanted to stay he easily could have taken a discount to make up for the 1st. If he asked for 7x7 then he's dumb and greedy...if that's true then he might as well go where he came from. Sharks don't really need him anyways. Another righty would be needed.

7x7 is a pretty confident number, DW has to have something else going on. Martin buyout and Boedker move? That or Jumbo is coming back super cheap?

Couture about to get an 8x8 extension. This team is going to be so top heavy

The original tweet said the estimated figure was around 7M, 7Y. Perhaps it could be closer to $6M, 6Y. Fingers crossed.

Typical Doug Wilson way overpayment.
Overpays frickin Vlasic an entire year before even becomes a UFA, instead of maybe waiting until the new calendar year like he did with Burns. Overpays Martin Jones, coming off a mediocre season, a whole year before he turns UFA, because of course there's not 25-26 other teams with a goalie at least as good or better than him.
Now he way overpays for Kane. That's a year too long and a million per year too long. Was Evander Kane really gonna get that much in UFA?

We’re going to have $30M tied up in 3 non-superstars and one 33 year old superstar for the next 7 years because...why? What is DW thinking?

Just wait until old man Joe is signed to a 3-4 year deal in the coming year.
And by old man Joe, I don't mean Thornton....

If Wilson trades Meier he might as well just fire himself. Meier and Hertl should be untouchable.
