Value of: Josh Manson's next contract

[MMC]

Reports sound like Manson wants to stay in SoCal and likely extends. Most Ducks fans (including myself) seem to prefer to only keep him if he takes a bit of a hometown discount with shorter term but I'm curious what other teams' fans would like their team to offer him if he hits market?

I think he gets 4x4. Leafs can't offer that but a lot of other teams could including the ducks.

I'm confident it won't be a good contract. Like Savard last year, he's a guy who's reputation is better than the player. He's get something at 4-5 years and 4-6 million but IMO is worth more like 3.5 million for 3 years.

Ya im hoping for something in the 3.5 x 3 range.... we dont really have cap issues right now... and he can be a solid training wheels guy for our young dmen like Thrun/Zellweger etc

but i think 4x4 is more likely, team loves him, anything over 3 years is worrisome for me

he's 30 already?? wow..time flies
since he's already making 4.1m, not sure he'd take a cut? guess you could frontload it and make it more palatable in the last half of it

Echoing the 4 x 4 deal, similar to Dillon and others in that #4 role that bring solid playoff intangibles

Haha ya but his play def gone down since his 4.1 deal

man, time does go by faster as you get older.. I'm old.. sigh

and shame with his play... had a really good skill set

sure they could. Pretty easy. Not saying he would want to come but they absolutely could

4.100 x 3yrs

Ok the better answer would be not could they but should they. I don't believe management thinks they should.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Devils offer him 5 x $5m

Take him.

 

[seanlinden]

David Savard got $3.5m x 4.

Chris Tanev got $4.5m x 4.

The league's economic outlook is a little bitter today then it was a year ago, and I get the sense that Manson is viewed closer to Tanev than he would be Savard; so I'm going to say $4.5m X 5 to stay in Anaheim.

Could also see $4.25m x 5, or $4.5m x 4; something in that ballpark.

 

[snowave]

Manson's biggest problem is staying healthy. Would think that could have an impact on what he is able to get, but who knows.

as a duck fan, I'd prefer to keep him, but 4x4 would be about as much as I'd want to go.

 

[captainpaxil]

I'd love to have him in Philly and 4x4 or 4.5x3 sounds good

4 years @ 10 million for me…. 2.8 million per year the first 3 years and then 1.4 in his last year.

He can be a Duck his entire career and be a development guy when he retires, and his injury risk is ok with a smaller cap hit.

His play has really fallen significantly the past 2 seasons and I think he’s been tentative this year knowing he can’t risk getting hurt long term or he would lose lots of money.

I think Savard is on a good contract. He Blks everything great on PK and can cover for a fast and small dman like Girard for an example

How do you convince Josh Manson that he's worth LESS than Chris Tanev was 2 years ago??

 

[Conbon]

If Chiarot is worth a 1st+ allegedly I cringe imagining what this guy costs.

This was a waste of your time, obviously he's getting a lot more.
