ROR won a cup while the Sabres missed the playoffs, so unless Tage becomes a #1 all around right wing that helps carry this team to a cup, ain't happening.

Idk what he'll be at by then so unsure but 6mil range seems right Lock him up longterm at that rate before all the other young players get here and he becomes even better than he is now.

Theodore is a good player but the Sabres are pretty loaded at LHD and pretty thin at C. Do you not think TT is a legit #2 C, if not a #1C? Also, Vegas isn't going to trade him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) I was curious on how the other 2 top prospects that Jbot considered from Stl were doing this season. Like Tage, Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou have fully blossomed this season. Both are now pt a game players, but more playmakers then goal scorers. Thomas has 60 pts in 60 games with 14g and Kyrou has 63 pts in 63 games with 20 goals. Also both guys are under contract for one more season. Tage, while not a pt a game player (yet?), is by far the goal leader of the 3 with 32 in 68 games (tonight not included) and 57 points overall. I wonder if all 3 guys’ next contracts will be semi based on the others? Regardless, all three guys will be expensive to re-sign. If Tage scores 30 again next season, I’d expect a contract similar to Dahlin’s bridge deal. Edited April 9, 2022 by GASabresIUFAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ll be buying out his potential foray into UFA territory. If he scores 30 again next year, it’ll be expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerreaultForever Posted April 9, 2022 Report Share Posted April 9, 2022 I don't think the Pegulas will back the money truck up for anyone again after one season of big numbers (after Skinner) so there won't be any talk of extending him until mid season at the earliest and then only assuming he is performing at a similar level. Nobody will get big long paydays unless we start winning for real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just pay them. For TNT to get a 10 mill contract is going to have to put in 40 goals and add at least 50 assists next season. If that happens, sure pay the guy. I don’t see him hitting those numbers despite the 32 goals ytd. If he puts up 70 points next season we should be thrilled and that will earn him 7.5 for 5 years. VO’s deal is definitely looking like a 4 year 5 mill deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
