The price that must be paid for that delicacy…also combination explosive diarrhea alongside staggering constipation

If that don’t look like a couple of LDS missionaries…

I wish there was an NHL team named the Xtreme. Not the Avs, that would be horrific. But like some other one. That'd be so rad.

By the way, Cale and Dev are going to be playing some board games with friends on Saturday. Why don't you drop by? There's rice krispies treats. They're really great!

Depends where you live I guess. Here it's probably around $30/hr for 37.5 hrs/week so roughly ~60k.
But then again it's probably higher in some Canadian cities where to cost of living is super high like Vancouver and Toronto.

Friedman Offers Small Nugget on Byram Contract Talks
The Bowen Byram contract extension is going to be a fascinating one for the Colorado Avalanche this summer. The talented young defenseman will be a restricted free agent once his entry-level deal expires this summer. Speaking on the 32 Thoughts podcast, NHL Insider Elliotte Friedman offered a...

So yeah... around that range for a pretty specialized position. The best guys like Al Murray get paid bank, but it took him a long time to get there.
As I've said... Byram won't be easy to negotiate with.Friedman Offers Small Nugget on Byram Contract Talks

Closer to $5m IMO. Byram will see himself as better than Dobson and in the Werenski/McAvoy area.

I'm completely guessing here, but to me that sounds like they tried to Sam Girard him and he passed.
Bummer but not even close to surprising.

If I'm Byram I don't want to sign long term. He hasn't played a full season yet so he doesn't have the numbers to bring to the negotiation table for a long term deal.
I don't think he's afraid of his health at this point either. He just went a full year++ without concussion issues.

Byram probably would re-sign long term if they paid him $9m per, and that's probably been stated. Avs would be nuts to do that right now.

It only makes sense to sign Byram log term right now if the AAV is low. His injuries are still a scare and he need to be more consistent offensively if he wants to make the big bucks.
We'll probably see a bridge at a number that pisses off most people.

I mean if it's below 6M it's fine
As long as it's not a shit term that'd walk him to UFA like they did with Barrie it's fine.

I said below
I'd be OK with something like 3 X 5M but he has to be our #2 dman for that. That means moving on from G and Toews.

That deal would be fine, but Byram will see that as long term. IMO 2x5 is too much for what he’s shown. Potential, yeah sure… but Avs don’t have the cap to really pay for potential.I said below
I'd be OK with something like 4 X 5M.

I mean this is entirely speculation on Friedman’s part not actual inside info. His reason is because the Avs like to get things done? Remember how it went with Mikko or Landeskog? Makar and Mackinnon are different circumstances.
With all that being said Byram and his agent aren’t stupid. He will be expensive but unless he is represented by Newport I expect they will get it done and probably a bridge as people have suggested.
