A comparable player might be Calle Jarnkrok from the Predators. The Swedish center preferred to get more term than money: he has inked a 6 years- 12 millions deal last summer.
I guess Danault could opt for something like that if he doesn't care about money...
Yes prime Pleks.
maybe I’m just biased. Just not a Danault fan and don’t think he should make more than Eller is making in Washington
3.5 is the maximum for Danault
I just think there pretty much the same player talent wise and Eller signed his contract for his UFA yearsI agree, but I don't think that Eller should have any incidence on what Danault gets paid. IMO, Eller was grossly overpaid for what he gave the Habs, but his resurgence in WASH warrants his salary.

If Danault gets 1 penny more than Eller it’s an overpayment. They’re both 3rd line centres
You should focus less on the amount he gets compared to Eller...and more on the %'age on the cap.I just think there pretty much the same player talent wise and Eller signed his contract for his UFA years

Depending on what the cap will be this summer, it could be as high as 80M which is what? 10-12M higher than when Eller signed.
That figures into the contract.
There are alot of factors at play here...you can't just look at a contract signed almost 4yrs ago and use it as a template for today.
3rd liners as a whole are making more money today than they were when Eller signed.
Wow I totally forgot be just signed an extension...I thought he was still playing under the deal the Habs gave him.Eller just signed with Washington for 5 years at 3.5 per.
Given that it's all UFA years, I would think that Danault will get something similar for a few hairs less. 3.25 hopefully over 4 or 5 years. It's a movable total should somebody better and cheaper come along and gives us the possibility of a bargain deal should Danault late bloom into a legit top 6 center.
We have to overpay! We simply cannot afford to lose this once in a lifetime player. Don't even risk it. Players like Danault are very rare in this league.
if he wants more then 3,5 millions he can get the f out... he has higher value in montreal then anywhere else in the league because of our center line situation. hes a decent player and works hard and can be a good option to be 2c for 10 games if somebody in the top 6 goes down like every decent 3rd liner should be....heck even torrey mitchell looked ok has 2c for a brief stint. FOr people saying that he has offencive potencial...well he barely cracked 40 points with 2 of the best wingers in game...and looked lost in the playoffs. He loves montreal and were the team that gave him his chance and believed in him....well take the home discount.... if not , groom JDR to the 3c position

re-signed in Washington for the same cap hit...You should focus less on the amount he gets compared to Eller...and more on the %'age on the cap.

#attitude man, #attitude!!!!lets just get rid of this guy who cares..
lets just get rid of this guy who cares..
Hes getting more than 3.5 in my opinion
They are stuck and Danault knows it . He is their best natural center . if MB trades him away the French Media will tear him apart piece by piece.
I am scared of a 4.5 5 or 6 year deal aince Danault has all the power even though he is an rfa .
Hopefully it resolves and we get a 2.8-3.5 caphit .
We cant overpay for a 3rd line Center .
true, they're pretty much kissing ass to the Org.The french media isn't anymore vicious than you guys and the english media. It's just not as comfortable for you maybe?
The French media is a very special breed, you won't find a bigger bunch of homers in all of North America. What a joke.The french media isn't anymore vicious than you guys and the english media. It's just not as comfortable for you maybe?
