Marc Staal

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

he might have negative value at this point, 7 more years at 7.5 mil AFTER this year....

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Nothing of much value

Jesus.....that contract is unmovable.

are you asking Wild fans?

Yep there is a few poison years there for sure

 

[Dominicr]

If you’re eating 50% we will take your 4th with him for our 6th.

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

Probably Brent Seabrook

Not much for that boat anchor of a contract. He's a shell of his former self with all his injuries.

 

[Kcb12345]

Yeah the Wild are likely stuck with him..

 

[LeonDraisaitl]

Nothing. That contract is garbage.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Minnesota thought they were going to beat the market with those twin contracts (no pun intended) but I think everyone else was waiting for the train wreck

 

[Blackjack]

Only 4 more years of real money payouts though, after that he'll be allergic to his pads.

The better question is, what would Minny give up to get rid of him? With the term as long as it is, Minny is either retaining 50-75% of that contract and adding a top six player to the offer, or any deal is a hell no-go.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Meh. He’s fine where he is.

 

[Pia8988]

Future compliance buyout

You seem to have a really strong grasp of the whole "retaining salary concept".

OmG I just looked at his contract....yikes. This had to be a move to sell tickets.

 

[Alklha]

The contract is unmovable, at least in the short term. It is heavily front-loaded though, so the final 3 years only pay a total of $4m in salary. They’d find a taker for that. The problem is that Parise has a full NMC and might not be willing to accept a trade from his home team to the uncompetitive team that would be interested.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

he's unmovable but at least the wild got that 2012 off season champs banner before they turned around and spoke out about how out of control contacts were mere weeks later, being vocal during the lock out.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

Minny overpaid by a gross margin, but we would’ve given him a fat contract, too. I’m glad we dodged that bullet.

We played the game that was already set up.

It was a move to advance from a non-playoff team to a playoff team. And in that regard, it worked.

Yup. The Devils avoided disaster by missing out on Parise. Kinda funny how things work out.
