Here's the list of teams with more than 2 under 25 dman logging 18+ minutes a night:
San Jose Sharks
Montreal Canadiens
Real recipe for a contender.
Stamkos has 81 goals and 205 points in his last 175 games. He isn't signing 6x6. In terms of comparable UFA deals (guys over 30 when it starts), you're looking at the backstrom contract, the Ovi contract, the ones that get REAL ugly at the end.
You're asking for Stamkos to sign with a worse team, to play in ****tier weather, with worse taxes, in front of one of the worst media's in hockey, and you're asking him to take a lower AAV than Killorn got.
6x6 is 36. He can go get 9x4 if he wants.
I get what he is trying to do here and commend him for trying but yea
Draisaitl with an extension costs more than that by a lot! Guy is top 5, arguably top 3 C in the league and is young and that extension will run 8 x 13 maybe more.
And cost you 3 1sts Reinbacher and Suzuki.
Stamkos I do think will be listening to 8x5 offers at the bare minimum and with his injury history I don’t think it’s wise! He might be a Pavelski and prove everyone wrong but odds are his next deal doesn’t age well.
Montreal already has a strong RD group, I would grab Eiserman or Demidov over Levshunov though I don’t disagree with your assessment of Levshunov!
Patience I think is more logical here and let the team mature and grow rather than trade away that amount of young assets. Doin lg these kind of deals could hamper this rebuild and throw you right back into another.
Oh and with the way Anderson is playing sharks want nothing to do with that contract, especially for that little of a return. We already have 1 of your castoffs eating up cap room with zero return.
