He does in fact, have 7 years left.
Last season was the first year of his new deal.
His contract does have a full no move that turns into a partial beginning 2027-28.

This is my bad. I saw the below and thought it ended the year after and missed the 2031 part...
At $6.25m, that's not an unreasonable cap hit moving forward, even is his play drops to that of a 2nd pairing guy towards the end of his deal.

Weegar and it's not even close
Christian Backman? Ryan Clowe? Jarrett Stoll? Bobby Sanguinetti? Dylan McIlrath?
We have such a deep D corps if this is the requirement...

Damnit, knew I forgot someone! It is funny though, shows you how little room there is for young guys. In reality there is likely only one spot available to Othmann/Berard/Rempe/Edstrom. That's assuming Carrick gets an every day spot.

Unless we start getting lucky again, assuming an average of 1 forward injury each game is a pretty conservative play.
There will be A LOT of opportunities unless Drury pulls put some late moves.

As big as he is, that should be a natural part of his game, but creating chances and keeping opposing team honest will help this team alot more than sweeping the floor and hoping something hits you.

Why would Calgary be looking to move Weegar? This is a BIG, and I mean B-I-G, reach by someone looking for clicks. It'll take a lot more than Kakko, Sykora and a few middling picks and there's no reason for Calgary to be looking to part ways with him. I don't see it. And his cap hit is pretty awesome to boot.

If Calgary was looking to entertain offers on Kadri, it would make some sense to take offers on Weegar as well.
If they're looking to tear it down, it would make sense.
But yeah, it'd take a lot more than that.

I don't see the correlation. Weegar is still getting better and has a great contract. Not sure who's looking for a 36, 37, & 38 year old Kadri @ 7M per.
And, even if they were tearing it down to the studs, Kakko, Sykora and a few middle round picks gets Calgary to hang up on you.
Think Perrault, Kakko, and next year's 1st as the beginning of the conversation.

Oh I know it's BS I just really, really like the player so am hoping to will it into existence.

I mean, Weegar's contract runs until he is 37 and they are unlikely to compete for the next couple of years. So it wouldn't be that shocking to see them trade him while they can for good value. I'm not commenting on the return, just the thought process.
It's also possible that Weegar asked to be moved so that he can compete if he sees the team being ripped down to the studs.
Yes.....when he returned to Hartford after his first (or second) call up, he had some kind of injury.

I wouldn’t say that’s a bad thing when it’s pertaining to someone who’s 6’2, is a great skater, and moves the puck well. If Laviolette wants guys that can push the pace offensively, Matheson fits the mold way better than Lindgren.
The Ryane Clowe saga was a doozy.
—Sather trades a 2nd, 3rd, and 5th (wonder where Drury gets his habit of throwing away draft picks like candy) for him when he had zero goals on the season
—He scores two goals against Pitt in the game where Brass and John Moore also scored after getting traded here
—He plays 12 games here then gets concussed and misses the rest of the season + playoffs
—After losing to Boston, Torts gives the presser where he says it was hard for the team to compete against them when we were missing our Lucic (Clowe) and our Chara (Staal) (lol…)
—Dagoon allegedly runs into Sather at the draft and asks about Clowe to which Sather laughs and calls him damaged goods
—He signs a 5 year contract with NJ, plays 56 games over two seasons, and is forced to retire due to concussion issues

Dolan sucks!!!
Mollie discussed how Kreider and Zibanejad are not easy players to play with. Breaking them up is not easy,
Cerny mentioned how Panarin and Mika continue to disappear in the playoffs(Florida series). The Rangers are trying to win with their two highest paid forwards belonging on milk cartons when the playoffs arrive. Good luck.
Igor contract. $10.5M-$12M.
Lindgren. Fox's buddy. Help us. It's a priority. Term is the issue.
Rangers aren't sold on Jones.
No depth on D in the organization
Big moves are coming at the trade deadline. Oh boy. So stupid.
This team is doomed. Players get upset over Goodrow. Cap issues. No depth. No draft picks. NMC/ NTC. Players who disappear in the playoffs and can't be moved. The Rangers aren't winning the Cup. Let's be realistic.

Dolan sucks!!!
Trocheck and Smith have a history together in Florida. Pretty good numbers as linemates.
Cuylle-Zibanejad-Lafreniere. I like Zibanejad with Lafreniere.
Panarin-Chytil-Kakko. Chytil has chemistry with Kakko. Panarin was rolling with Chytil prior to the concussion last November.
Kreider-Trocheck-Smith.
