With only 200-300 players signed on for next year that leaves between 400-500 players needing to be signed and i'm guessing most in mid July.
My question is who will sign the
1) largest (per year $$)
2) longest contract
My guess would be between Pronger, Lidstrom (if he's a FA - can't remember) and Iginla.
I would peronably choose Iginla and will say 5.5m but I think realistically Lidstrom would fetch 6m or so (but Det has to get rid of some other salaries)
As for longest contract i'll say 4 years is the longest and it'll go to players like Nash, Heatley, Kovalchuk. The majority of contracts will be for 1 or 2 years with some 3 years and only the young standout players getting 4 years IMO (i could very well be wrong but if i was a gm thats what i'd do)
Let me know what you all think.
