fairly reasonable trade for Hamilton, although i think hes closer to 8x11 than 8x9

standing by for Dumba trade chart posting

I love the dude, but that seems like a bit much. I personally wouldn’t give him more than $8.5 to $9.5 mil a year for 7-8 years.

he will be pointing to the Karlsson and Doughty trades as comparisons and can always go to UFA if he doesn't get what he wants.

He has leverage, a la Jeff Skinner, who ended up getting about 1.5 million more per year because of it.

For sure, but all I’m gonna say is those Doughty and Karlsson trades aren’t looking too hot for LA or San Jose, but I get the market will dictate how much he makes.

NHL GMs never learn from their mistakes.

I don’t see the canes trading dougie I think he wants to stay in Carolina. It seems like the canes are the best fit by far he has had in the nhl. I think we could get him locked up at 9x8. I think that’s a deal that both he and the team would be happy with. I would then expect svech to come in at 7x5. Would give us still enough cap space I believe

Ain’t that the truth.

VAN cannot afford Hamilton's new extension. They've already got cap issues without adding another salary like that.

dont wanna that activist dumb a
