That Blues trade is not at all realistic. I would not hold too much hope for the Seattle one, either.

Meier would sign his 1 x $10,000,000 qualifying offer and head to FA, Before he'd sign that joke of a contract.

i mean with how he played in the playoffs he'd better prove that he's worth a max contract

Playoffs don't tell the whole story, If that were the case then Tyler Bertuzzi just gave himself a nice little $7,000,000 to $8,000,000 contract long term.

they don't tell the whole story but in meier's case it almost is the whole story because he just got there. i gave him a contract similar to what laine got in 2019 because he has undeniable talent but he needs to show the team that's he's capable of fitting in their system.

I agree that his situation is much more comparable to Laine than somebody like a McDavid or Tkachuk

Timo Meier just put up a 40 goal season between San Jose and New jersey, Pretty sure that will take more presidence in his next contract then the playoffs that's a team game.

Meier 2 years x $7 million? We would be buying one year of his UFA. One year.

Think we gotta go long-term or move him to a team that will.

true but he scored 31 of those goals in san jose. talent is one thing but chemistry is another. look at how bo horvat fell off a cliff after being traded to the isles. new york was not the best fit for him and now his new deal not even a year in is already being widely regarded as a kneejerk mistake.
