I'd bet good money Lafreniere won't win the Calder next year.

Id take that bet in a heartbeat.

 

[Mickey Marner]

This contract is effectively a qualifying offer. I imagine he'll sign a two year deal for around 2 million AAV.

Allows him to burn the 1 year ELC he had to sign. So then he’s a RFA come November

True but Sorokin will already be 25 next month. He isnt extremely young or that far off himself.
