I think stutzle is going to take a contract like Pettersson or Matthews. He's going to be worth a boatload after he puts up 90 points this year.

I hope you're right, if he gets over 80pts then he might get over 8M but maybe since Norris and Tkachuk are making 8M he will accept 8M also too make sure the team can ice a contender.

Tampa has managed to keep their core together for a long time despite handing out fat contracts to a lot of their stars.
Once you start getting close to the cap, you just have to juggle things well. We may see some guys shipped out, but it will help us replenish the prospect pool as we have guys graduate. As long as we get some guys coming in on the ELCs/cheap contracts every year, we should be good. Nobody wants to see someone like Norris traded, but if Pinto ends up surpassing him we could get a haul if we traded him 3-4 years down the line.

I wouldn't be surprised if they if they extended Talbot($3 AAV for 2 years) and bridged Stutzle ($6.5 AAV for 2 years). 2023-24 will be tough financially with $5 mil in dead cap space. Once it clears, 2024-25 will have more flexibility for Stutzle.

Sure. If we can swing that, we'll be fine for a long time (or until Stutzle literally doubles what we gave him because the market has altered). Still, looks fairly feasible. Not sure about the Weegar or similar for 4.5, but that's Dorion's problem.
Qward
Because! That's why!
I think you are paying Pinto too much.
He has only play 17 games over 2 seasons so far. Last time we paid based on potential was White. That didnt work out for us.

You could be right. I originally had him penciled in at a bridge for 1.25 but upped it after seeing SpezDispenser's figures. 2.5 for 5-6 years could be an amazing deal in 2 or 3 years.
What the heck?! Dorion taking the day off?? He knows I can't get anything done until the RD situation is resolved.

Teams are going to hate us. Can already hear "tHe ReFs ARe BiAsEd" whinging, going to be so sweet to bathe in their tears lol.

You think Giroux gets a letter? I don't see how they don't give him an A on his chest.

Stützle is the player you don't bridge. After that deal he'd get close to double that amount. Not that I think he would accept it in the first place.

Guys who wore the A last season:
Chabot,
C.Brown
N.Paul
N.Zaitsev
Guys expected to be in the opening lineup next year:
Chabot
Yeah, I'd say there's room for Giroux to get himself a letter.
I'd guess we go with Giroux, Chabot, Norris, and maybe Batherson if they rotate somebodies letter. DeBrincat is an option too

Stutzle, Debrincat and Giroux draw penalties with their skating, Brady draws penalties by being an annoying shithead.
Can't wait to play the Habs. Gallagher whining about Stu makes me want to smack em in games more then ever
