I think a lot of teams watched what he did after joining the Lightning and would take a 3.5m chance on him. Definitely. It's 3rd line money.Look at NP's career stats and tell me again he is worth 3.5?
Can't see us giving up that kind of term. The money, sure. But he hasn't been here long enough to get term, IMO.As a Sens fan, I suspect an offer from TB in the 3.2-3.5 range would be more than enough for him. I bet he would even go lower, potentially a good deal lower, if the deal is 5-8 yrs.
Yeah, I wouldnt recommend it haha. But just saying I think Paul will take less money to stay with Tampa, just like I think he would have taken less money to stay with Ottawa.Can't see us giving up that kind of term. The money, sure. But he hasn't been here long enough to get term, IMO.
then you can likely say goodbye to either Sergy, Cirelli, and/or Cernak the following season.....Yeah. I would say 3 years at 3.5M would be ideal. He's a third liner, let's not get it twisted. He's great and we saw that, but giving him crazy term or dollars (can't happen cause how tight it is) is troublesome. Plus without checking He's already late 20s I believe. Not old but we don't want a 10 goal scorer at like 4M being 30 with 3 or 4 more years to go. Let's not be the Isles here.
No cause McDonagh will probably be moved.then you can likely say goodbye to either Sergy, Cirelli, and/or Cernak the following season.....
