Rumor: Bennett contract AAV could eclipse $10M?

[MMC]

I really doubt anyone gives Bennett 10M.

Click bait.

Obscene

 

[OmniSens]

Ouff, not a chance.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

By Gawd, that's Bill Guerin's music!

 

[Regal]

I could see it over a shorter deal. I’d be surprised if it was 7 years. But the cap going up is gonna make GMs get nutty

 

[Junohockeyfan]

The only way this happens is if the Leafs step up to overpay Bennett. Because no other team or GM is that stupid. Except maybe the Avs....

 

[BLNY]

$11 million CAD would be within the realm of reality ($8 million USD).

[Master Bill]

How much did Sam's agent pay those guys to put up those tweets?

 

[Sinbad]

This would be such a Leafs move, let Marner walk and then overpay another forward.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Thats only about 100k per point. Not bad....

 

[boredmale]

I could see a team looking for an identity and having tons of capspace willing to give up close to that

Chicago?

 

[boredmale]

Thats only about 100k per point. Not bad....

200k, 100k would be 100 points in which case probably wouldn't be enough

 

[Kevin27nyi]

I’ll be honest, I’d overpay.

But not that much.

It's.....it's Brad Teliving's music!

 

[Dr Robot]

His career high is 51 points. This would potentially be ranked as an all time bad contract.

 

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

I think someone is giving Florida a 3rd rounder to give him 9m x 8 years

 

[sigma six]

I asked my crystal ball which team that could be, and it turned orange.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

I think someone is giving Florida a 3rd rounder to give him 9m x 8 years

I would not want that extra year.

 

[SEALBound]

I really, really like Bennett. His biggest value right now is providing what he does at $4mil. At $10, you're plummeting that value.

That's 1C money. He's not a 1C.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

ChatGPT thinks the Panthers will re-sign him. Oilers / Minny are the other teams with a GM dumb enough to do it.

 

[TheNewEra]

on a two year deal maybe

 

[Zirakzigil]

200k, 100k would be 100 points in which case probably wouldn't be enough

Math is hard today. I knew that didnt look right

Either way thats a yikes contract. And I love Bennet.
