Player Discussion Linus Ullmark (G)

[PlayersLtd]

We currently have $65.3 committed next year with 12 on the books, 13 if you toss MacEwen which we will. Let's say Ullmark gets 7 long term and cap is $92M. Thats $20M to sign 10 guys. Notable players to sign are Ridley and Giroux. If they take $8M combined thats $12M to sign: a backup ($2M), 4 depth forwards (Halliday and Ostapchuk, 2.25 combined) and 3 D one of which is Kleven ($1.5M).

So about $6.5M to sign 2 depth forwards and 2 D, one of which is likely Yak.

Did anyone see Claire Hanna’s insta story today? Ullmark updated his Sens mask, good lord it’s beautiful

Don’t see it. Do you have a link or pic?

 

[SpezDispenser]

Please sign here, we love you already.

He’s staying, I have zero doubt. He’s our clear cut #1 which is what he wanted. We will likely need to go 6 x 7M but it’s worth it.

Good thing he likes it here so far (apparently).

Andlauer has personally checked in on him a few times already.

we'll be the first team where he is the star #1, we're gonna back up the brinks trunk, he is already a leader here, and swedes seem to really like ottawa

im almost certain he will sign with us.

It is easy to tell that the boys love Ullmark. Huge hugs from players like Norris at the end of this last pre-season game.

He's the real deal. We absolutely have a chance with him in net.

You got that right brother, you need solid goaltending to win in this league, you can't win with sub 900sv%, and with Ullmark you get solid over 900sv% almost every night and he gives confidence to the whole team.

I'm glad SS agreed this was priority #1 this offseason and didn't just resign himself to being stuck with Korpisalo.
