At what point do we get to start "Sweeney so cheap" on HFMainBoards? You know if the same were happening to the Canes it's all we'd hear
Prolly never. If the offer is 8 x 8, its a pretty fair offer for a guy with a smaller amount of games played.

Sway wants more than fair for his one big contract in his career. Thats fine too.

Washington, DC.
Yeah as much as Swayman is a fun guy to root for he’s absolutely asking for the moon here if the rumors are to be believed.
He (or his agent) apparently wants to "reset the goalie market". This isn't about being insulted that 7.8 million isn't actually 8 million as some dupes in the media have yacked about, he wants a LOT more than that. Same agent as Nylander, too, so no stranger to massive holdouts.

Good to hear….seems like a good guy.

Btw: Pono (seemed to be hurt a bit) and Koivunen both probably will not make the roster.
Harrison Brunicke, who the Pens selected in the 2nd round via the Guentzel trade is making a name for himself at camp. Sounds like he might crack the Pens roster.
