Duclair's AAV on his most recent contract was $3M, and he made $4M last season, FWIW.
Fun fact: Duclair is a month or so younger than Hudson Fasching.

I believe Smith is on an expiring deal, but that’s tangible value from a middle six player. Why can’t Pageau garner a return if Reilly Smith does?

The one year can make a lot of difference value wise. Didn't Smith always use to score against the Isles?

$3.5 AAV for Duke is a slam dunk!!! Patrick Roy affect.
WOW. I was expecting $4-4.5 especially in this market.
Absolutely no one should have a problem with this signing.
He can score 15-30 goals. Gets hot and goes on tears. And he’s skilled enough to play with Horvat and Barzal

I'd imagine a trade is in the works to move a contract. If Pinto was actually asking Ottawa for a 5AAV deal, we can't fit that with Pageau alone as an offset.

If they can somehow bring in pinto and exit Pageau they will have seriously upgraded the offence.

Reilly was excellent for us. 1 year at that AAV is no brainer.
Nice work here from Lou.

I wonder if the increase in young guys on long term contracts has jammed up the front side for youngish players so the league can take on more oldies.

I'd really like Pinto, but I see that OTT seems to need LHD now. Bolduc is the no-brainer component. But, a little concerned about my boy Romanov going the other way.

Here are things I'd like to see rest -
A top 6 F signed via free agency - i.e., Skinner, ArvidssonSigned Duclair 4/3.5- Wahlstrom traded for a 2025 pick or comparable prospect - i.e., Berggren, Kaliyev, Heinola
- A top 9 F signed via free agency on a bargain deal, like < 1m - i.e., Atkinson, Beauvillier
Sign a young PMD on a 1-year deal - i.e., Brannstrom, Bean -Signed REILLY 1/1.25- TWO solid AHL C to help in Bridgeport - Gawdin and Blandisi
- Lee - Horvat - Barzal vs. Barzal - Horvat - Duclair
- Engvall - Nelson - Palmieri vs. Engvall - Nelson - Palmieri
- Holmstrom - Pageau - Wahlstrom/Gauthier/Fasching vs. Lee - Pageau - Holmstrom
- Martin - Cizikas - Clutterbuck vs. Maclean - Cizikas - Tsyplakov/Fasching
- Romanov - Dobson vs. Romanov - Dobson
- Pelech - Pulock vs. Pelech - Pulock
- Aho/Bolduc - Mayfield vs. Reilly/Bolduc - Mayfield
- Sorokin and Varlamov vs. Sorokin and Varlamov

I wonder if Lou will try and dump Engvall, he seems redundant with Duclair and Holmstrom (assuming he is not traded) in the mix.

The extra year is huge. Teams already plan ahead years in advance and you need to be comfortable with putting yourself in a 5 mil hole by taking on a multi-year contract like this.
