Value of: Ekblad next contract?

[HockeyVirus]

He has massive injury issues and now with this PED thing, I’m sure he’s not going to do as well as you think.

Are you just going to tell people they are wrong or are you going to contribute to the thread with a prediction? I already put it out there I think he is in the ballpark of 10M on the open market. Whether that ends up in the 9's I wouldn't be shocked but if he wanted it some team will give him a deal that starts with 10.

OP is now thread police

Definitely has disaster potential. Between the injuries and just the already very apparent lack of footspeed...any team signing him long-term at his age and with those additional concerns, is almost certainly going to regret it. Probably sooner, rather than later even. That Florida system does a pretty good job of hiding his mobility limitations...so if he does leave, there's a pretty good chance he looks poor and struggles quite a bit if asked to do more, within a system that doesn't insulate him nearly as well.

If you are going to spend days in a thread telling everyone they are wrong, not unreasonable to ask for a prediction themselves.

Oh brother. Yeah he’s important but he’s not our #1 lmao. Ekblad is not getting more than he is now and it won’t be long term.

Not in Florida anyways

Eh, he’s discussing the thread topic.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Trotz probably throws a heap at him because our 1RHD is either Blankenburg or Barron.

Might be a little gun shy after last summer.

Yeah but our defensive depth is.... not good... especially on the right side.

Well you do the same shit so why do I get different rules? You don’t give 9-10 mil for 35 point defenseman lmao.

Doesn’t stop it from being laughable without merit or basis
