Quoting: MisstheWhalers
I guess, he can go for whatever as far as I'm concerned, DeMelo is pretty overrated imo just don't see retention happening if they moved him.
Depending on the season he has and if he even wants to extend in Winnipeg PLD'S raise might be doable with Stastny coming off the books and Beaulieu expiring frees up a bit more but yeah its pretty tight to make it all fit after the Schmidt and Dillon trades.
It's ridiculous that Heinola looks like he's the odd man out this year unless another move on the backend is coming, the kid is ready for the NHL.
Obviously DeMelo is a good 3rd pairing D man but most 3rd pairing D men make under 2M.
I like DeMelo but without retention or seeing him play in harder matchups it's hard for me to justify anything more than a 3rd round pick at this time.

I mean there gonna need cap space to extend PLD and Copp and get a proper backup for buck. Plus Heinola or Samberg need a spot. So hes probs gonna get moved at some point
That said its probs a 2nd + something else with no retention
I would have given a 2nd when he was on the Sens and was only getting paid 900k.
Dubas should have taken two 2nd rounders for Tyson Barrie and flipped one of them for DeMelo. Instead he insisted on getting a 1st and a high end prospect and ended up losing him for nothing.
