Thwomp! Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 5 hours ago, LGR4GM said: So you are trading Jones for Risto? Okay fine but what other level of trading do we match up with them? They've arguably got at least 3 goalies that are better than ours, they've got tons of draft capital including 3 firsts this year, they do have some talent and are a better team than us, and they need high end forwards. They also need to change things up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones is overrated and wouldn’t sign with us anyway. Reinhart probably wouldn’t want to sign an extension with Columbus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So like in line with what Ryan Johansen and Matt Duchene make? I wouldn't give him more than 8m is what I'm saying yes. Because Duchene RyJo are over paid does not make it okay to overpay Marner.

Good luck tonight We have one of the best goal scorers in the league making 7.14m abd Scheif at 6.125m and Ehlers (arguably as good as Marner) at 6m. Helle at 6.17m. You don't build a contender by overpaying people...just look at TO and the Coilers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A) the jets are not close to a contender b) scheifele is one of the best contracts in the league, it's not representative of what you can expect in signings Also Ehlers isn't arguably as good as Marner come on Edited June 2, 2021 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalonill Posted June 22, 2021 Report Share Posted June 22, 2021 Paying Tkachuk 9 million a year isn't a smart decision when you don't have a franchise center or a first liner. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when they already have a LW getting paid 9 million. Having two taking up 18 million, is not the best use of cap space, particularly on this team. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and it is likely to go that way with Tkachuk, but it doesn’t need to. He could sign a long term contract for less. That said, it does seem that Tkachuk has his course charted for UFA in 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
