That isn't how negotiations work unless you made a typo. The Oilers are not going to offer 2 million more than Bouch is asking. Bouch is asking 11 and the Oilers will counter with 9. My guess is they meet in the middle at around 10.
Speculation: Evan Bouchard asking $11M AAV on his next deal

4x1st from the Habs would make me think about not matching an offer sheet.
Ps. Despite having a French sounding name you know he's not from Quebec

Has anyone actually confirmed from a reliable source that his ask is in fact 11 million?
Or is this the typical BS rumor from a facebook level poster that has generated 15 pages of arguments over nothing because it's HF?

What offer sheet do you think Evan Bouchard would sign with the Habs that the Oilers wouldn't match ?

11,452,294 is 2 firsts, a 2nd, and a 3rd compensation. Next summer that number will be over 12 million.

Oilers don't have much caproom with big raises to Drai and Bouchard next year. Thinking 10 million
If he gets that much (he won't), it's a good thing Edmontons top guys can physically carry a team and put up insane numbers. Caps still going up. Poor guys have to pay top tier players. They could have a guy like Ep making 11+ million and not being able to carry a team.
