Sounds like Stamkos is going to hit the market according to his agent

Tampa tried offering him eight years at $3 million per year.

I know they have all the Tampa advantages … but sheesh, that’s light.

This is after they tried offering Killorn eight years at $2.5 million last year, ended up signing with the Ducks for four years at $6.25 million …

If that number is true that's a slap in the face especially with the cap going up.

Like that isn't cap circumvention for a player as old as him lol. Also time value of money is a real thing. He can likely get a team to give him that in 3 or 4 years vs 8 and be much better off.

Laughably terrible deal.

I don't think those are just OTA streams though are they? You have to log in using your cable acct or something right?

HNIC was on CBC OTA this season. The games were 30 seconds ahead of the SN feed. Downtown right by the Canada Life Centre the CBC OTA has a pretty good signal with a small indoor antenna.
Who knows about next season though.

Honestly, if something like that was actually accepted ... is there something the league/other teams can do? The team that proudly brought us the cap-circumvention-in-the-playoffs loophole signing a PPG forward to a $3 million AAV would be, what do the kids call it? Sus. It would be sus.

God you ain’t kidding. Taking him to 41? Please.

Stamkos would look good in a Jet uniform.

8 year term for a 30 year old goalie.

We gave an 8 year term to a 31 year old goalie.

But our 30 year old goalie is 6’5” and not 5’6”

I'm sure saros will bounce back and he is 5'11", not 5'6". Big goalies can age out too although I'm confident Connor will be good for several more years.

Paying a 42 year old $3 million is light?
That's how old be will be on his last year.

Paying a point-per-game player $3 million a year is light.

Do the Jets even have a table at the draft? Maybe just on chair in a corner with the chair facing the wall?

They spent the night out in Vegas. Incoming hangover draft for round 2.

I agree but he gets a $24 million contract and has a chance on being on a winning team but he already has 2 Stanley Cup so probably he doesn't feel like playing for 8 more years and wants to cash in on his last contract. Maybe if the Leafs trade one of the big 4 ... they can sign him for big bucks.

Looks like Trouba may go to the Red Wings. Funny how Copp and Trouba might end up there together eventually. Roslovic to Detroit incoming?
