So has he signed it? I love offer sheets. Great entertainment

That’s what an offer sheet is. It is an agreed upon contract with a restricted free agent. You don’t hear this story unless it has been signed.

Let him go, take the 4 1st rounders, 18 million is crazy money.   And you can take revenge on the flyers another year for sure.

so if he is worth 18MIL for 29 goals what is Celebrini worth??? He is open to sign a new contract July 1 and clearly is worth more then Carlsson so I gues he gets the max... 

No question Celebrini gets the max.

I didn't know if it was a PR move by Philly to show off to their fans what they have tried etc.

Dumb offer. Throws the league pay scale out of wack.

Kaprizov signed for $17M and then McDavid signed for $12M. The league pay structure isn’t getting changed by this.

$18MM/per for Carlsson is NUTS. He looks like he's going to be pretty good, but highest paid in the NHL? WTF, man? That screws over the Ducks and I'll bet pissed off a lot of GMs around the league. Philly just reset the market in a way that's going to make things more difficult for a lot of teams moving forward.

Imagine someone offersheets Cutter Gauthier for like $14 million a year now. Ducks would be screwed.

Bedard, Fantilli out there 

I do not believe Gauthier is eligible for an offer sheet but that’s a Taro question.

Makes it hard for teams with semi-elite to elite young talent coming up for deals in the next year or two.

Makes it easier for teams that aren't in that situation, as they won't be competing as much with the above teams for any other talent.

As far as the offer sheet goes, looking at who Philly has coming off the books the next year or two (not much) and wanting to resign Michkov...this doesn't make a lot of sens for them.

That would be dumb. Likely get four picks in the 17-25 range. You won’t find another Carllsson there.

Its not just the picks. Its your salary structure going forward.  Eventually when you DO become a cap team, putting the best team together isn't just about pure talent, it is are you overpaying for that talent or not (vs what the rest of the league is paying for similar players).

To contend for a cup, its likely you are going to have to be a cap team or near a cap team. When you are at that level it hurts you a LOT if you are paying that much more for players of similar quailty that other teams are paying less for.

You may be correct that even the 4 draft picks will not get you back what Carlsson is...but this just puts Anaheim in a tough spot. If they decline and let him go to Philly, it puts Philly in a tough spot (not seeing how they would be able to keep Michkov in that case)
