For the last time: Krug isn't signing with a rebuilding team

Money changes everything my man

Dadonov won’t get that little. Florida will resign him to that contract in a heart beat if he would

I personally think that is too much for Lehner. I'd rather put that money towards Dadonov or Krug and a goalie like Smith or Talbot. But f#ck, if we could get Labanc for Van's 1st, I'd be happier than a pig in sh*t. That would give us a legit top-9 for the future. I would also change the lines up a bit.

But this is a great team. We would definitely compete for the playoffs.

Yeah like 7 x 7 will convince Krug to sign with the Devils, Krug would easily get between $7.5 to $8.5 million for 7 years on the open market. He's not wasting his time on a rebuilding team for 7 x 7 no way.

Zero chance of Lehner taking 3 x 5 he'll get at least 5 x 5.5 on the open market from the right team.

Boston moved Backes contract so that they could sign him. They can now afford to give him 7 million

I think you're light on Blackwood's salary. I don't think I'd give up a first for Labanc. Hughes shouldn't be counted on to be a top-6 player, certainly not at the expense of Bratt-Zacha-Goose line. Krug isn't coming here.

$8.5 million x 7 for Krug?! Gosh...that’s a lot more than I would have guessed.
