This is a serious issue that needs to be fixed.

It’ll be better long term to lock him up before prices get stupid, but LaCombe’s agent will know that

True but as good as he has been recently, he has only been playing like a top pairing D for a short amount of time. Not enough time to earn a top pairing contract and the agent should know that too. An 8 year deal at a reasonable price may make sense for LaCombe to accept.

Any chance he shares an agent with Marcus Pettersson?

that, high taxes, smallest market, somewhat isolated

will guys in their 20s making $$$ want to live and play in LA, NYC, FL, vegas, or winnipeg?

Should Verbeek try to extend LaCombe after the season is over and try to get LaCombe cheaper than waiting after the 2025-26 season, where LaCombe might improve his game and scoring to demand even more AAV?

As long as possible. Especially with the cap rising, pay players who clearly deserve the contract. Prices always go up for good players, and LaCombe just keeps getting better. Another incredible defenseman pick by Madden.
