Rumor: Dallas Stars have approached Wyatt Johnston's camp with an 8-year contract offer that would pay him slightly over 8M per season.

Dallas management better not f*** around or they will find out this stud will accept a massive offer sheet because there are a ton of teams looking for a center and the cap is jumping quite a bit.

I trust Nill. He knows what he is doing. There won’t be an offer sheet. Nill will keep enough money free to ensure he can match anything which makes the offer sheet threat pointless.

RFA contract compensation is based on division of 5, not length of contract

"An offer sheet’s average annual value is also calculated slightly differently than a standard contract. If the contract is longer than five years, the total salary is still divided by five to determine the AAV. That would mean a seven-year contract worth $8MM per season ($56MM total value) would carry an AAV of $11.2MM for the purposes of offer sheet compensation. "

11.452 x5 would be the 2 firsts, 1 2nd, 1 3rd.
11.452 x7 would be firmly in 4 1st territory.


And it would all but guarantee Bedard is getting 11+ on his next contract too

Well, if we go by the Shesterkin contract tweets, 8+M here is like 11.5+ in singing in NY.

Thanks.

Btw I would easily offer 11.45 by 5 years for Johnston.

If flyers truly end up with a pick at 10ish or later like it's starting to look like then absolutely in favor of using it for an offer sheet.
 
Highest scoring 21-year old in the NHL this season. Highest scoring 20-year old in the NHL last season.

Tied for 6th in the entire NHL in points since January 1st with MacKinnon.

Johnston is getting paid on his next contract. 8 million per with a dramatically rising cap seems light.

Any offersheet you attempt to sign this summer uses 2026 picks, not 2025 picks. You can't sign him to an offersheet until July 1st, after the 2025 draft.

So over these takes

Texas does not have income tax, BUT they make up for it in other areas.

There are more ways than an income tax for states to get money. Texas uses the if you use it we tax it method.

So. We have high sales tax with local jurisdictions able to add up to 2% allowing the total to be almost %-10 sales tax

Then… Property tax. 5th highest in the nation. For perspective. Texas pays double amount of property tax of 30 other states. Double!

If you average ALL the taxes Texas residents pay, then they average above middle of the road about 12-15 for most tax burden state.

I got a rude awakening visiting Nashville a couple weeks ago. (Tennessee also income tax free)

9.75% sales tax rate and another 15% tax on alcohol sales in restaurants/bars. After tip it ended up being around $32 for two drinks in every bar we visited.

They get their money one way or another.

That’s an insultingly low opening offer from Nill, surprised that he offered that, legit could piss off a young player that worth over 2M more than that.
 
I hope the rest of the teams start getting smarter by closing this advantage the no-state-income-tax teams have, by offer sheeting their RFA. Then they pay cap market value and the player would be smart to sign them to maximize their net.

If Johnson isn’t in the $9.5-10m range then it’s another feather in the cap for one of Gary’s Six.

Sounds like where you start in negotiations.

Johnston, after a slow start like Robertson, where he was completely snake-bitten by low shooting percentage, has been an absolute unit since the turn of the year along with his teammate:

Oh yeah, he also is one of the team's top PKers.

One of the brightest young star forwards in the game. He should cost way more than "a little over 8"...even if the cap weren't going up.

There is principle in Hockey though. That offer is the same as Heiskanens contract, so basically saying we guve you the same long term value as Miro..who Dallas consider their best player and franchise cornerstone. There is a reality where management in some franchises don't want to be outpaying their current franchise cornerstone..especially on their opening bid in a looming negotiation.

I understand the economies of scale here and a rising cap trajects a bigger salary.

Just think there is an importance here before they go inferring more than Heiskanen
