GDT: 2022 Free Agent Frenzy - July 13 [11 AM CT]
- Thread starter Satan
- Start date
I would start with a 3rd round pick on the 2nd offer just to see if it would be enough to push it threw
3rd offer would be a 1st in in the deal
You wanna create cap space you start with moving players
You have to see the intreast level to even start the convo

The irony of Klingberg helping Lindell to get paid, only for it to be a contributing factor for his own not getting paid—at least by Dallas.
On that note, I wonder if there’s going to be an tension in the NHLPA because of players being squeezed out from the flat-cap and salary cap in general. It’s another case of the “haves” and “have nots” in a way, perhaps a bit like the NBA. The elite players will get max deals and the rest of the players will be fighting one another for the scraps.
That is, while no one could have predicted the Covid flat cap, is it possible that the Klingbergs out there are at all frustrated at the Benns and the Seguins for commanding so much cap space that the team (and other players) are now hurt by it?
Just thinking out loud…

Sure but so far the players haven't really lost money. Pretty much all of them instantly got another contract and in some cases ( Nichushkin ) that buyout led to him earning a massive contract with his new team. D'Angelo is another one that got another big contract after he was bought at 25 and under .

For all his flaws i thought Sekera was decent for 2 of the 3 years he was here but last season he was extremely done. So much so that even Bowness just couldn't justify not scratching him regularly anymore
Happy retirement. It was time.

Probably too soon to give him an ELC right away. I assume he probably was told that he very much would earn one if he continues to play like he did last season
Damn I mean I was late af on Laine, been catching up slowly on the news. Saw Bjorkstrand when it happened but didn't realize Pat signed his ticket
