Kinda want Stamkos to sign with us so heads will explode in Toronto and Boston

I think it’ll be Boston, actually.

My guess is we sign Toffoli.

That’s a bad faith offer. Low annual average and unrealistic term for his age.

At same term no US team can provide more take home $ than a Cdn team on $8M-$9M per w 95% bonus payout

In other words a GTFO slap in the face / kick to the balls offer - which is what Habs need for even a remote shot of being able to sign Stamkos

 

[lecoqsportif]

Yup

Only shot they have is Marty and Vinny and that's if HuGo and Molson really want him.

I'll tell you this, he may be 34 but 40g and over a ppg is no slouch and everyone will say Michkov who?

Tampa Bay tried something similar with Killorn last year before he went to Anaheim.

 

[GrandWazoo]

Not just that. I don't think anyone looked at his work in Calgary and thought, holy shit, Mr. Bawstun Pizza Brad Motherfucking Treliving is available???

But apparently that was enough to hire him, stay the course and do... whatever the fuck he's doing right now.

How anyone thought he was a good candidate after the Tkachuk-Gaudreau mess is astonishing.

You’d think Toronto would have a higher bar, but you won’t see me complaining.

I don’t mind Stamkos for 3 years. I’m weary of guys when turning 30, but guys that are 33-34 and still producing is fine by me.

 

[Habsy]

I am too but there are exceptions. Perfectly fine with 5x5 for him

 

[HabsFan1]

Detroit got some serious cap space.

 

[Habsy]

So do we

Damn Vegas

 

[Habsy]

They'll take a run at stamkos

 

[HabsFan1]

They'll take a run at stamkos

They don’t got much space. But they seem to find it.

Gotta be a cup contender that will sign Stamkos. I am open to 3 years at 8m. I see value in his experience elevating our younger offensive stars.

I have no problem with a team not signing an aging star. The Tampa offer was bad faith for a cup winning vet. Just tell him your going another direction rather than lead him on.

So 24m with 8 aav

5x5 is 25m with 5m aav. He's worth that.

 

[GrandWazoo]

3x8 or 4x6 I’m okay with, but I prefer the shorter term.
