Sujet: Oshie
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Eli</b></div><div>That makes sense, but I doubt Dallas move Radulov, let alone retain enough salary for him to fit better than Oshie. Dallas fans?

Here's Oshie's contract: <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/tj-oshie">https://www.capfriendly.com/players/tj-oshie</a> It pays him only 4.5M per year from ages 35 to 38

It's built on the same descending plan as Radulov's: <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/alexander-radulov">https://www.capfriendly.com/players/alexander-radulov</a>

Here's Pavelski's, which pays him $8M the year he's 38, which tells me Dallas just wants to score more points, whatever the cost: <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/players/joe-pavelski">https://www.capfriendly.com/players/joe-pavelski</a>

So maybe the Caps ask for, like, Damiani and Honka, thrown in, and maybe Washington adds Boyd, and the Caps sign a UFA 2R? Not that there are good ones left.</div></div>

You're right about Radulov probably being a hard guy to get, but again, Oshie will be integral to Washington's success this year and would be similarly tough to acquire. Also, maybe I didn't make this point clear enough: no amount of prospects or non-lottery picks would be worth not having Oshie for any amount of time this year. As long as he remains a strong two-way player, his value is nearly impossible to replace for the same cap hit, so you'd end up paying much more for a younger guy like Kreider or paying about the same amount for a guy as old or older than him (which puts you right back at square one), and that's only IF similar guys are available and interested in Washington. I'd much rather deal with a buyout in the last 1-3 years of his contract than trade him for magic beans now because he ***might*** start to drop off in the near future.

Sujet: Toronto Maple Leafs signed Mitchell Marner (6 Years / $10,903,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CoraStorm</b></div><div>presumably signing bonuses are free from escrow and escrow % vary from year to year( I don't know current %). The player earns total salary for year apart from AAV. total salary equals base salary (presumably is applicable to escrow) plus signing bonus (isnt applicable to escrow). then u calc per entire contract.</div></div>

Signing bonuses are very much applicable to escrow (and can be a significant driver of any year's given escrow %); escrow amounts are all about "Actual Club Salary" (i.e. the actual dollar amounts paid out by clubs in a given year) and whether or not the aggregated Actual Club Salary exceeds the aggregated salary cap/floor midpoint in any given quarter.

Sujet: Just a thought - Marners contract
If I had to choose, I'd probably just cave in to his demands for a bridge containing an absurdly high QO. He probably won't replicate his production from last season even if he spends almost all of his time with Tavares again (career years are hard to top), and if he gets split up from Tavares it'll become obvious just how much Tavares drives Marner's points (and not the other way around). Either way, you get to find out just how good of a player he is without committing long term, and if he's not as good as he currently thinks he is you can hopefully work with him to sign below his QO, and if he's as good as or better than he claims then you've got a guy who's better than Matthews or Stone or McDavid on your hands, in which case you back up the brinks truck and pay the man.
