Gaudreau took $1.5M/yr less to not sign in Calgary. Winterpeg just signed guys to deals worth about $1-1.5M/1-2yrs more than they would have gotten on the open market. Some teams have to bid very high in order to retain talent. Even then, Hanifin is a #2-3 kind of guy (as are Weegar and Andersson). $6-8M/yr is going to be that price point for that tier player.Not necessarily...
Man a dman that can demand 8x8.5m is a top end guy...
I'm hoping SE can be that guy but its certainly no guarantee
Ed could step into the #2/3 role tomorrow and be fine.
