Lundell has to be willing to accept the OS also. This offer is like pretty much what he'll get from the Panthers when you factor taxes into it. So its an easy no for him. (Logically speaking)
Going to SJ to be a bottom dweller for the foreseeable future making slightly more money but more taxes OR stay on a perennial cup contender and make a little less money now maybe but more in the long term.... Can't even say the weather is better as a main factor either.
That's why if you do OS someone, the money has to be sooooo much more than the player deserves for them to realistically accept. Just like UFA's, you have to overpay.
Want Lundell? Offer minimum 6.5-7M. Panthers couldn't match and Its a significant overpay that would make any player think twice about. Problem is you better be confident Lundell is a top end player because everyone thought KK was going to be amazing in Carolina and we all know how that is turning out.
