No I'm saying just because he has 1 more year on his contract isn't going to increase the return to a Broberg plus a first plus whatever else went through your head while making that post.
My point, and I'll say it was overstated, I don't see a Getzlaf deal or any monster deal for that matter. I've been consistent on this thread.
We've seen the market for Hall as a UFA. The next market seems to be Kreider and Pageau as UFA. So let's say a potential first round pick and prospect for their range. They are straight rentals.
Pageau 32 points (20 goals), 52.55% face-off, 17% shooting percentage
Getlaf 35 points (11 goals), 51% face-off, 9.6% shooting percentage
Kreider 35 points (18 goals)
Getzlaf's salary and cap hit are prohibitive and includes next year on the books. His production is within range of Pageau and Kreider. So let's say a first round pick and a prospect are equitable. The Ducks would then have to take on likely maximum salary retention AND take on a contract like Russell which is $4 million this year and next. This is a massive premium that I think the Ducks would be crazy to not demand a massive premium - that's where I see asking for the sky in terms of an elite prospect back.
Now if it came that the Flamers had interest, I could see them having more flexibility cap wise, maybe some NHL assets like Jankowski and other(s) secondary players. Their GM has never been afraid to throw draft picks for proven players. Getzlaf's size, experience could potentially help including maybe moving Lindholm to wing.
There's just no way Holland would be in on this. And there's really no evidence I can find that this is even remotely a credible rumour. I likely overstated things but the Oilers would not be in a very good position at all to bid if Getzlaf went to market. Would require a overpay which we saw when Holland passed on UFA Hall. The Oil prospect pool after blue chip Bouchard and Broberg is pretty average.
