His age and time spent as a pro.
Nylander's the same age and has the same amount of pro seasons. Is there something I'm missing?

Nylander is 22. Montour is 24.
Yeah if you sign your first contract after the age of 20 you get arb rights faster than those who signed ELC’s at 18-19.Whoops. I forgot that he was an overager since they were in the same draft year.
Every thread ends up about Toronto...yack
Kapanen for Montour 2 - Electric BoogalooIncoming Kapanen for Montour trade proposal.
Montour's played 1 1/3 nhl seasons, so Dumba who played 3 1/2, isn't a good comparable. He's good, but Murray is right that someone with that little experience who hasn't put up the boxcar numbers yet isn't worth that right now.
Personally, I'd sign him for 4-5 years 2.5-3 million, similar to what Nashville gave Ryan Ellis
How does he have arbitration rights? Nylander's played 2 1/3 seasons in the NHL and doesn't have it
Yah that would be a good contract and reasonable. 3-5 years 2.5-3 mill. 4.25 mill? For one good season in the NHL? That’s pretty damn steep man. That’s almost Lindholm money and he’s a 1D.
True. Though he's older, so 3 years takes him right to UFA. I expect either a 2 year bridge, or a 4-5 year long term deal at a decent AAV
Monty is going to be good, but he shouldn't demand that type of money after one full season in the show.
Montour should definately be getting 4+ per year... I wouldnt think that would be a issue at all giving that to him. Its the going rate now
Ducks need to get him locked in at a 4 - 5 per year for 7 years... If they dont, they will be paying a crap load in a year or 2
Hes a damn good dman and is gonna have a massive break out year this upcoming season or next
Montour doesn't want a long term contract yet until he establishes himself. I suspect Anaheim would sign that contract you mention in a heartbeat if it were possible but it isn't.
Ya id imagine Montour prefers a bridge hey? Hes a prime candidate to have a massive 2 years and then cash in ridiculously on a long term deal
Such a tough decision for a player. Take the guarenteed 30ish mill for 7 years and be completely set for generations or take a low amount for a couple years amd risk getting hurt or have terrible seasons or whatever just so that next contract is massive!
I think it’s funny people are talking about the Ducks offer, but ignoring the asking price by Montour for one good season asking close to Lindholm money. This is how arbitration works.
When does the decision come down?
His hearing is 24 July so the latest we hear anything will be 48 hours later on 26 July.
They can still negotiate a deal while waiting, right? Scheduling arbitration doesn't mean they have to stop negotiating?
You can sign a deal right up until the arbitor makes his ruling, after that though it becomes take it or leave it for the team.No I believe once the hearing happens then theres no turning back.
