Player Discussion: Noah Dobson

[Chapin Landvogt]

his asking price isnt that far off from where he was projected to end up (10/10.5)

if the isles are more comfortable at 9/9.5 the common ground isnt that far of a reach .

Oh, jeez, I hope Darche isn't gonna view that number as one he's comfortable with.

 

[Fantom]

If it’s common knowledge that Dobson is asking for $11M/yr, he already tanked his trade value. Who else do you think will pay him that much? Any trade Darche makes now for Dobson will come up short of fair value.

yikes is asking for 11M ?

 

[Fantom]

Dobson is worth no more than $8.5M per season. That is also factoring in the cap going up a lot.

i tend to agree with you here i would even say 8M

Cap going up means his $11m AAV is 9.69% when the cap is at its projected highest in 2027. It's the equivalent of $9.2055m AAV with next years cap of $95.5m. Ultimately $9.2 isn't bad if he's back to his 23-24 form and is actually a discount compared to what some other guys will get that are in that tier of defenseman.

The issue is Dobson had his 70 point season when Mayfield played 41 games with one ankle and Pulock played 58 games. The next highest scoring defenseman that year was Mike Reilly with 24 points in 59 games. No other defenseman aside from Romanov played more than 60 games that season.

And if he players like crap defensively like he has the past two years, including under Roy, and only gets 55 points, how’s that working out? Bad, bad, and bad. Like Darnell Nurse bad - think EDM wants that contract right now? Even with the cap going up? Heck no.

Still gong to take more than an offer with minimal quality for him to be moved right now.

Kind of settled on trading him for Peterka+. Let Buffalo reshape their D, trade Byram for X and trade JJP for Dobson.

I really wish it worked out at a good number because I liked the idea of him on pair two for years and Schaeffer on one, thought that's a winning ticket but even with the cap rising, which means you need to start swallowing tough pills on contracts, I have a hard time giving a big ticket to a guy that hasn't earned it in playoffs.

When some of these teams give out these contracts instead of bridging to young players I feel like they miss out on a key evaluation of signing someone long term which is being a playoff factor.

So give me a talented forward.
