Colorado or Dallas step on up!!

 

[starsfan86]

The sky is blue.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Still think it’s a off-season type of move

[JeffP]

It may be offseason, but i’d think there would be incentive to include more now than later
seems pretty shortsighted to put it off imho

As much as I’m ready for new help D to come in, I hope Nill gets someone less expensive and more capable in the offseason if its a matter of giving up some of our best pieces.

Why would a winning team want his awful contract

 

[blankall]

I could see the Flames being all over this, but I doubt they fit the criteria of "contenders" that he's looking for.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Are his and Zibanejad's contracts identical?

 

[trellaine201]

Wow at least five more years at $9.5M is alot. Unless for some strange reason he mutually agrees to end his contract. Why did he sign such a long contract to begin with in Chicago

 

[eojsmada]

Seth Jones admitting that Chicago is over five years away from competing. Must feel great to be in Bedard's shoes about now.

This has gotta be Dallas. Their window is now and they've got an opening on the top pair

They still had Toews and Kane when he arrived, and they brought in the reigning Vezina winner, MAF, the same offseason. It was supposed to re-open their Cup Window.

Remember, they had what seemed like a youth wave starting to take over with DeBrincat, Dylan Strome, Kirby Dach, and Kubalik (fresh off 30 goals).

The Hawks also traded for Seth's brother, Caleb. So he got to start his tenure playing with his bro.

I’m pretty sure Bedard understood he wasnt being drafted 1st overall by the 2008 Red Wings.

Money I'm guessing

 

[TheNewEra]

chicago gets all the luck

jokes aside i wonder if he gets moved after his signing bonus of 5 million since it his last super expensive year. He would then have a higher cap hit(9.5) and an average salary of 7.1 over 5 years.

Jones is 30, Bedard is 19. By the time Bedard is in his prime, Jones will be well out of his and almost retired.

Not giving up Bourque for that contract lol. Nill has already gone on record that he’s not trading Bourque, Stankoven, or Bichsel.

Dallas is going for Dobson.

from an outside perspective option 2 looks fair, im not sure when the avs injured players are coming back because that might make it tricky for them to take on salary

 

[pegcity]

Jets might be interested. If Chicago ate some of that money.
