Which RFA do you think will hold out the longest?

[Sticks and Pucks]

I think it's safe to say these five forwards, Point, Tkachuk, Rantanen, Laine, and Connor are the best unsigned RFAs left. Which one do you think holds out the longest? How many of them do you think still won't be signed by opening night of the regular season?

I’m thinking either Point or Laine. Things don’t look good with Laine...

 

[izzy]

laine more than likely

Laine. Almost voted Point but I think he will come around and sign before Laine.

 

[Metroid]

Flawless victory

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I thought it would be close with Laine and Point. Seems I was off on voting Point with everyone saying Laine

 

[Just Linda]

Tkachuk is next followed by either Connor or Rant. Point before the season and Laine sometime in October.

Lol inb4 "Laine has an attitude problem," "Laine wants league max," AND "Laine's a bust."

I don't usually make it in this early!

I'm a bit surprised too. I made this poll thinking Point would win.

Point. I doubt he puts up 90 again so there is no reason for him to take a short term deal.

 

[Muffin]

Tkachuk for me. I think Keith is going to play a role here.

 

[hockeyguru]

rantanen. he's norway bound imo. not gonna play in then nhl this season.

At this point after thinking Marner was going to sign last it's gotta be going in the opposite when I had Point, Rantanen, Tkachuk, Boeser, Connor, Laine and Marner in order. So let's say Laine !

Got in early with what? A victim complex? It will be okay.

Anyone able to post some updated #s in terms of what each team is rumored to be offering the player, vs what the player is asking? I know it's just rumors and some players less rumors have broken out than others - but seeing actual #s would give us a better sense.

Example - I think a lot of people expected Marner to go last. But when it was reported Leafs had offered 11M*7 yrs, I changed my mind. I figured the 2 sides were likely close, and so a deal would get done, and it did. Curious how far apart some of these other players are.

I've heard very little for Ranta and Point for example, and even Laine.

 

[cgf]

Laine or Mikko would be my guess.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Laine wants league max and has an attitude problem. I'll go with him.

 

[sparxx87]

Point.

I think he’s the best of the bunch and possibly not on board with the ‘take less for the team’ motto they have going in Tampa.

Well, to those who voted Kyle Connor (no one), congrats!

Connor.
