Already trying to offload the kreider deal ?

after 2022 season. so in 1.5 years

should've let him walk

strongly disagree. helps us score on the powerplay and is a great locker room presence. although his contract is a little too big, hes a great guy for our team and one of my fav players. wish he signed for less though. maybe 5-5.5 mil instead of 6.5

Shouldn't have gotten the term, only should've got 4 years at that price tag

i dont mind the term tbh. hes likely named captain this year and it makes sense for the term. only wouldve wanted his aav lower to like 5.5

He did bring the team to a cup final

but I'm not going down that rabbit hole, I'll just get sad

lmaooo. thats a story for a different time. it was a hard fought series though so it was fun to watch

Edmonton isn't going to spend a 1st to downgrade their goaltending.

jesus christ thats an overpay. 3 1st round picks, two of our best prospects, and three solid depth pieces for a center we could certainly use, but dont really need. Just wait for Chytil and Barron to develop. We'd also be extremely lucky to resign Fox for 8m, i bet he'll get 9 easily. Zibanejad should also get something like 8.5, either way he'll be a steal if its around 5-6 years.

It was a good deal at the time it was signed. There's no way he would've gone any lower. Then covid hit and screwed everything up. The real issue with this is the NMC IMO.
