Speculation: So...Does Goligoski Sign Or Not?

[RABBIT]

Would be a great addition for us, but still up in the air. He was acquired for just a 5th round pick, so it's low risk-high reward.

So what's your honest opinion? Does he sign or not? Just trying to get a general consensus.

Signs. Anything less than 5 years $30m is a win.

If he's smart and has no qualms about Arizona as a place to live, he signs. They'll offer a lot of money and relative security.

I think we'll offer more money per season and a NMC. He'll head out to the market to see if he can get anyone to match. Teams will lowball with a NMC or pay up without a NMC. He'll come back.

The problem is whether his going to market on Day 2 of the draft, makes us hit the panic button on Day 1 of the draft. This is my primary fear.

I am assuming you mean before the UFA period starts? He could still sign after the UFA period begins. If I am the Coyotes, I would tell him the offer is good until the UFA period begins.

Exactly, otherwise he will test the market.

Why is this a seperate thread

I don't think he'll get a NMC from the Coyotes or any other team. My wild guess is there's no more NMCs awarded until after expansion.

We can afford to give him one which helps our case tenfold.

 

[MIGs Dog]

yes, but I have a feeling young Jedi Chayka will overpay.

We don't have a too many threads problem on this sub forum.

That's our ace in the hole, man. Trading for his rights, and offering him both market value AND a NMC is the only chance we've got.

 

[Ebb]

While I hope he signs, I have a feeling he won't. I just think that other teams will be able to offer about the same as the Coyotes and are much more stable and appealing.

I think we may offer more than market value. We have the cap room for a few more years.

If Golo exchanged numbers with Dallas it's fairly safe he's signable. Biggest issue will be arena issue/franchise relocation.

Voted Yes.

[Snarky Coyote]

Voted no, because I am often wrong about these things

If he gets the chance to go to Doan's house and have dinner with him I like our chances haha

Doan is in a reported contract dispute. Maybe OEL's chalet?

 

[lanky]

Next summer some teams will be in a very weak position because of their NMCs. I hope GMJC doesn't play his ace in the hole a year early and on a UFA.

Must be a generation gap.

 

[Naych_PHX]

I think so. I mean, if the Coyotes thought they had a chance to sign him, they'd wait until July 1st and make an offer, like any team would. But someone within the org. seems to have the inside track on this, so I gotta believe if they're confident enough to move a 5th rounder for him, they're capable of making a deal.

Where have I been ? Who reported this?
