Gotta think $8 mil per at minimum?
Ottawa is gonna lock into this core for long term, better hope it finds some success.

He's a quality first liner a consistent goal scorer. I think we had all safely assumed that Ottawa was trying to extend him. Why wouldn't they be?

I hope they make a deal, because Ottawa is becoming a favourite with all their smart moves lately.

That would be a bargain compared to the Tkachuk contract.

 

[BruinsBtn]

This is a really, really risky one. You sure you want to do that without seeing him away from Kane?

 

[Esq]

If he extends, the deal is a windfall for the Sens. Kyle, you idiot.

Almost exclusively UFA years I'd think it's gonna be more like 9

I think the relevant update is that Debrincat had previously made a comment about wanting to settle in before making a commitment, considering he has a young family, etc.

If they are making headway right now, it’s likely because Debrincat has gone ahead and opened the door to contract talks.

He's good enough to create he own chances.

 

[A1LeafNation]

8x8

 

[NHL Dude 120]

An extra 2.6 mil to our caphit isn't the worst but we do need to get rid of Zaitsev asap.

 

[cg98]

He's going to be playing with Stutzle for the next 8-9 years, he'll be fine

he should have no problem putting up points away from Kane. Hes a very good player.

 

[Langdon Alger]

8 years 8.5AAV is my guess.

I assume he was joking, but you never know.

I’ll say close to 9 right now, and that becomes 10 if he puts up 40 again. He could also walk to UFA and be one of the biggest beneficiaries of the higher cap, really depends on how he feels about the risk.

 

[Double Dion]

Ottawa has made some really solid moves. They aren't contenders yet, maybe not even a playoff team, but they have a DEEP system. Like ridiculously deep. They have the capital to be contenders. Pun intended.

Agreed. I think we're talking 9M +/- 500K.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I'll be pleasantly surprised if it happens, especially this early.

 

[Zman5778]

A 40 goal scorer who's been PPG in 3 of his last 4 seasons?

Ottawa would do very, very, very well if the AAV started with an 8. I fully expect the AAV to be in the 9-9.5 range.

 

[Chadstudsky]

9m x 8 is my guess

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

This would be a pretty incredible accomplishment, but I suspect Debrincat is having an awesome time so far. He has clicked really nicely with a bunch of guys and I am guessing he is surprised and impressed by the talent on the roster.

 

[jetsforever]

Totally forgot he was a Senator

 

[notbias]

this is the first year without Kane, no? Interesting for Ottawa to be pursuing this, this early.

 

[Crow]

9.25 x 8 is my guess

 

[PatLaFontaineASMR]

Tkachuk - 9.5M
Laine - 8.7M
Kyrou - 8.15M

I'm guessing somewhere between 9M-9.5M

He looks just fine without Kane, so far has 3 goals in 3 games.
