Player Discussion Nick Suzuki Part 11

[Tuggy]

That would be perfect

Looks good. Bit rich of course at first, but he projects to fit nicely with those numbers.

 

[Archijerej]

Am I the only one that expects Suzuki's contract extension to be in the $6-$7M range?

Not for 8 years.

 

[Licou]

Not bad.

If he can string 4 or 5 70+ points seasons (I think it's a realistic expectation on the optimistic side) that deal becomes a major bargain!

[Sterling Archer]

Not for 8 years.

Guaranteed it'll be 8 years. It's how much per year that is the variable. I just don't think he's done enough to earn the $8M+ contract.

What I meant is that you're not going to sign Suzuki for 8 years at $6-7M.

Great Deal! Only $1.75 Million more than KK, with much better term. Given the contracts RFAs are getting these days, that is a good deal. Hopefully Caufield will sign the same deal and we can lock up our 1C and star wing for the future.

Current environment of the NHL is young players getting paid big bucks based on potential. Happening all around the league.

Bridge contracts seem to be the exception nowadays.

In the $6 to $7M range which means all the way through to $7.99M range, which is why I said not $8M+. Looks like it'll be $7.75 according to rumours, which makes sense. Not $8M range...

 

[Deebs]

Sets a nice precedent for all our young players going forward. Suzy is our future leader up front.

To early, too much. Dundon and Carolina have freaked out Bergevin and Molson with the KK offer sheet.

[KevSkillz4]

It's only 4 games, but he need to be much better than that. He don't play very well.

 

[CHwest]

I guess I must be a super star.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Only one goal so far this season and that needs to be better.

But… 7 points in his last five. That’s encouraging.

Might settle down the calls for an AHL stint.

at least until his next slump

The whole point of his contract IS to pay him more, earlier.

He’s not going to the AHL under any circumstances. Not with the money he’s making. He’s here for better or worse.

 

[Big Empty]

Suzuki has his juice back.

He had a great shot to score short handed and looked really good dangling Chara en route to Toffoli’s goal.

I hope we tank the year and Suzuki gets 70 points.

Zook is the only player I care about at this point.

 

[Colezuki]

Zook is the only player I care about at this point.

I mean I'm keeping my eyes on Romy and Caufield as well,

I said it in the DVO thread, I think that we go one of two ways depending on where the chips fall with the draft, but it starts with trading chariot for another first round pick

Then they either draft someone like Nemec and build around the backend and defense or draft someone like Wright and build around offense with Suzuki and Wright

 

[Jabba11]

If by Christmas break and Suzuki is closed to PPG, does he get an invite for the Men's National Olympic Team?

[JustAHabFan]

I am the one who doubted Suzuki based on preseason and early season games. My fault guys, my fault.
