Je pense qu’un facteur largement négligé dans cette intersaison est la façon dont Nill nous a positionnés pour assurer notre avenir dans les intersaisons à venir.
- Nous devons négocier le contrat Harley et nous espérons avoir un plafond significatif à augmenter à la date limite
- La saison prochaine, nous devrons négocier le contrat de Johnston, ce qui devrait être très faisable avec Jamie susceptible de prendre un contrat de type Pavelski et Esa prenant un plafond inférieur ou potentiellement passant à autre chose.
- 2 ans – nous devrons probablement payer Stanky et probablement Robertson
Dans l’ensemble, nous semblons être en bonne position pour gérer nos affaires, ce qui est de bon augure pour nous maintenant et à l’avenir.

Don’t think too many people were upset about not shelling out 6+ year deals in FA this year
It’s mostly what we paid for the likes of Dumba and Lyub, when comparables went for less
Chess, not checkers
Does Dumba or Lyubushkin have trade protection or no move clauses?
If Johnston has another season like the last one, he’s looking at a Roope type contract…
This team doesnt have the current prospect depth to have the entire roster turn over in 2 years, so Nill better make sure he cuts great deals with the RFA’s to be able to afford the 2 top4 dmen and a top 6 F (or two)
I wouldve preferred a long term deal to one of the ~29 year old RD dmen available for some cost and availability certainty
We are in good shape cap wise. Been and Segs will both take team friendly contracts to free up money for the younger guys. They have both made their money and want to win.
Esa’s number will likely come down as well on the back end. Probably around 3m AAV.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the cap is skyrocketing over the next 2 years to make up for the covid flat cap years. I think it’s 4 million a year, so that’ll make a big difference too.
I thought we didn’t offer Nils a qualifying offer, so he became a UFA and we signed him to a one year. Is he still an RFA next offseason or is that incorrect?
pin this since cap friendly is dead
No threepeat for Jim
Most of the fans here wanted to sell out the future for this season. Nill took a longer view and has us set to be competitive next season and able to land some better guys in the next few years. There’s a reason he’s the GM and some of the wizards here are not.
I’ll give Nill credit – he has set up this roster to be super aggressive as their core hits their prime. There is zero risk their core will walk without a competitive offer. Wyatt is going to command $11mil AAV if things go well. Jake probably $8mil+. Even so they will probably be able to add a significant piece in FA over the next 2 years.
I just hope when it’s time to be hyper aggressive and go for it they actually do it. They need a Cup (or two) the next 5-7 years or this is all for naught.
Oh my. Johnston’s gonna get a biiiiiig pay increase.
I bet if benn doesn’t take 2m a year or less, he’s gonna have to walk
I hope Roope figures it out. Long term, he’s getting paid 1C money/cap for 2C production. My concern is his NMC that kicked in July 1. This was the offseason to trade him to improve our defensive (RD) and forward depth. It’s gonna be hard to keep the core together assuming we hit on both Stank and Bourque.
