Re-stating my $6.75m-$7m per year guess.

I don't know. I don't think he has earned that. I think if this is what the team wanted and what he wanted that he'd be signed by now. I don't think he is asking for 8 or 9. My guess is that his asking price is in that range while the team wants him under 6.

Sign the kid long term, it's hard to see how we lose if he's getting a contract around 6.5M for 6 or 7 years

I think that's fair for both sides with a significant potential upside for the team as well

Bringing him in under 6 ignores pretty much all of his comparables, though. And the fact the salary cap has gone up.

My guess is Willy wants $7m+ and Dubas wants something around $6m. They'll meet in the middle somehow.

6.6 for 7 years is my guess. I'm guessing Nylander is asking for around 7m and that Dubas is looking for a deal in the range of Dylan Larkin. If they can't meet somewhere in the middle then it's probably a bridge deal ~5.5 for 3 years.

It seems like there is a bigger gap to me. There is less than a week till opening of training camp and nothin.

What if we just pay him what every CapFriendly user comments on my Armchair GM teams:

"You're not signing Nylander for less than $8,000,000 per"

And it seems we also need to pay:

"$10,000,000 for Marner"

"$13,000,000 for Matthews"

Yeah it's widely agreed upon that they (both Marner and Nylander) fall between the Ehlers Gaudreau and Patrnak contracts.
