Dreger: Seguin extension getting close to completion

[Confucius]

Tavares couldn't even tie up Seguin's skates.

Total bum. Look at how NYI did with him as the captain. What a great leader lmao

Don't forget about that zero McDavid in Edmontom, total crap. lmaO Edmonton finished worse than the Islanders

Tavares wasn't half as good as McDavid in his first three years in the league. Keep overrating JT, he's got 7 years to get it done before he goes down in Toronto history in a bad way.

Do you think Dallas will want to pay him more than Benn? I'd like to think that Benn wouldn't care seeing how he's paid a tidy sum vs a contentious contract where he's only 6-7m or something like that... but sometimes things like this matter more than we'd like to think they do.

Yah, I don't think Benn would mind. He is enjoying being the highest paid player for now (after taxes) and don't think it will be too harsh to see a teammate take over on that list. On a similar note, I don't think Seguin will need too much of a raise on top of the Benn contract to be happy about the money. That would come out to $10.3mil - $10.6mil depending on do you count it from this upcoming year's cap ceiling or estimate of '19-20 season's cap ceiling.

10.5 X 8yrs, book it

Why is he taking less than Tavares?

 

[Unspecified]

Everybody will find out quick, fast and in a hurry come October that your statement is false

Or they will find out that my statement is factual and not false as you claim.

[AK87]

According to most on HF, NHL players go downhill after 25

25 years old in HF terms is 40 IRL.

Thread turns in a Tavares Vs Seguin discussion LOL.

I shall give my contribution

Seguin > Tavares

 

[Vesna]

Seguin > Tavares no questions (i watched 80+ games NYI last year, my target was Barzal, and btw Barzal > Tavares too)
10.25 * 8 my guess

 

[kdog82]

The only way he takes less than Tavares is the Texas State Tax factor. Otherwise he gets the same, probably more. Not what Leaf fans want to hear as they start to get really sweaty around the neck trying to figure out how they can afford to keep their core.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Who the hell cares about Tavares?!

Enough with the comparisons.

Seguin's such a good center he has Benn take a third of his faceoffs.

 

[tony d]

Tavares is better than Seguin. As to Seguin I figured he'd kick the tires on free agency. Looks like that won't be the case.

Benn is left handed, while Seguin is right handed. Hopefully I dont need to explain why they both take face offs......

 

[VanIsle]

8 years at 9.5 per

Yep and Radulov is a left hand shot as well.

They need Benn to take over center duties when Seguin plans his Stanely Cup celebration under the leadership of Austin Matthews

I’m guessing this gets done today. It’s Stars media day and the media is already gathered.

Then you have to add that as soon as that the extension is taken care of the Karlsson trade is right after

 

[Filatov2Kovalev2Bonk]

Seguin is a bar legend, I'd take that guy in Ottawa in a second.

What leadership? Dude isn't even wearing a letter this year.

Talk about a malcontent.
