Question for Florida fans. How much do you guys think ekblad is worth right now. Is this the type of deal that in a couple of years it will be fair value or even a steal, or is he already worth 7.5 million.
Is Jimmy Murphy a legit source?
The fact that he tweeted this out 40 minutes ago and nobody else has said anything does make me question it.
Love Ekblad but he is ridiculously overrated, can`t believe some of the things I read about him on here.
The price point here is way too high and I don`t think he`ll live up to it.
Ok deal. Probably could have gave him 6 million for the next couple years, then for his next contract had given him 7.5M.
He is overrated today but he is 19 years old and had a historic 18 year old season.. u have to use some projections for kids this young... also his iq is off the charts... he is one of the safest bets to make a co tract like this but he does have to improve rapidly for this to be a steal in 2 or 3 years
As it stands, this is a great deal for Ekblad, and a pretty big gamble for Florida, who can only hope that he grows into that contract.
Good deal. This is already a steal even at this age.
He's already in the conversation for the top 3 dman in the league.
He will live up to that contract, and probably more than that.
