That's not accurate to what he said. He said everyone around the league thinks Reinhart is all but officially signed.

 

[Boud]

Not many teams with cap space, not many that could pay him what he's "worth" right now. One would think that his preference would be to stay in Florida. Just won a cup, great team, Florida lifestyle, low taxes. Other teams that could make a move like that would be Vancouver maybe or Detroit and both of those seem very unlikely at this point.

I think the most likely outcome is he's staying in Florida.

They'll have to create some cap space but I highly doubt he goes anywhere else.

7.75 / 8 years

No brainer

 

[Monsieur Verdoux]

7.75 / 8 years

They said it would be around 9-9.5.

 

[Boud]

They said it would be around 9-9.5.

Which team that Reinhart would be interested going to has 9.5M to allocate?

Unless some serious cap is unloaded from team X, he's just not getting that IMO.

 

[Canovin]

8M x 8 years is my guess

 

[Sabre the Win]

Anything under 10 is a discount.

7.75 / 8 years

you wish.... the cap will be $100M in a few years

 

[BB88]

Floridas window looking to stay open

With Nylander getting 11.5M Reinhart at 9.5 or less is a damm steal

 

[BKarchitect]

Would be kinda dope if they had one presser to announce extensions for Sam, CV…maybe even Montour or others…like “we are running this back!”

 

[GeeoffBrown]

I'm thinking 8 years just under Barkov's hit. So 9.5m AAV??

 

[Craig Ludwig]

Why would he not, living in Miami and paying way less taxes, seems like a no-brainer to me.

 

[TotalHomer]

Lol other fans are going to flip when he signs for 8.5M.

 

[Patdud]

Lol other fans are going to flip when he signs for 8.5M.

Makes sense to try and move Eklbad, Reinhart is a gamer and waaay more important.

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Lol other fans are going to flip when he signs for 8.5M.

I think he will clear $9m+, which will likely still be team friendly.

7.75 / 8 years

Would be an insane contract after putting away 57 goals and the cup winning goal. Especially after what Nylander just got. I think he gives a discount but you're dreaming if you think its coming in under 9.

I think he will clear $9m+, which will likely still be team friendly.

Yeah exactly. He aint signing for 8.5

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

It'll be similar to the Tkachuk contract, somewhere around the 9M-9.5M marker.

 

[TotalHomer]

I think he will clear $9m+, which will likely still be team friendly.

I am buckled for the outrage and still holding on to my 8.5 x 8 prediction.

 

[Necrobutcher]

I've been saying 8x9m since christmas and stand by it. That's the magical number which makes both sides happy.

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Zito just gonna continue cementing himself as a hockey god.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Can't wait for @Legion34 to cry and bitch about taxes when it's all said and done.

At least now you finally admit it’s real.

Actually. Friedman and Lebrun both said that teams are talking about it and floated out the possibility it would be addressed in the new CBA

Are you ever going to address the pre lockout 2004 article where the Tampa president is directly quoted saying they need a new system Because low revenue teams can’t consistently compete with high revenue teams and how they need competitive balance?

Admitting defeat now?

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

He is 100% staying and will sign for less than he could get... Not a chance he's signing elsewhere after winning a Cup and getting to live in Florida.
