Guess I was onto something with that Brad Albert’s tweet …

Huge win.

Otter gets the night off after his signing

This Swayman/Ullmark range means something like 8 years, $8.25m AAV

Probably drunk out of his mind right now on champagne

 

[Kcb12345]

Now give me Johnston next

 

[M88K]

fingers crossed for 7.5 or less

I think he left money on the table- good shit

Good to get it out of the way early . Now Wyatt needs to get gone and at some point next year Robo

This also really help the teams cap planning for next season.

It'll be interesting to see how this team manages the cap.

Hintz, Heiskanen already on big contracts. Lindell I suppose too.

Now Oettinger joins them. Johnston will get one just as big if not bigger. Harley needs a new deal in a couple of years. Stankoven too

Will there be room for Robertson still? Luckily his play is bringing that price down but it won't be cheap either way.

I wonder if down the road, Robo is the odd man out or they try to move on from Roope.

It will be really interesting to see how it will play out though, and it’s a great problem to have.

Benn and Seguin's deals come off in the next few years too so it'll help...a little.

the cap is set to jump a lot after the next CBA is inked- 8M is the new 5M

I think it's more likely they'll be looking to find a way to move Seguin in his last season if they have to . Maybe he's also an LTIR guy by that point considering his injury history

Is that your way of hinting that Benn is getting a 2 year deal to match up with the remaining years Seguin has left? lol

No hints with this one.

But, Wyatt and Roope deals go hand in hand.

It's about a million more than I'd want to have paid, but with the going rate what it is and the cap raising, it's not surprising.

Glad this got done now.

With the crazy Igor request, and Otter playing so well to start the season, that $8.25M could have turned into $9M+ real quick. Him, Swayman, & Sorokin all very similar levels, easy contract to get done.

Can't believe this is only his age 26 season, got him locked up in his prime.

 

[masinaLFC]

fair deal imo

I love this part of contract discourse but were there any comparables to even support Oettinger getting less than 8M? The entire market shifted- 8M is the stud goalie number. Oettinger could've held 10M over the Stars into next summer. His resume is a lottttt more impressive than Swaymans.

Is it though? He's played in more games sure, but Swayman has the better numbers.
They are pretty comparable, there's no scenario barring a really strong year for Oetter this year, that he has a legitimate case for 10M
