Why do we have to match?

It's a really poor return for KK. And we're already super thin at center. Finally it's just one year.

Also I like KK.

 

[GEEMAN]

Fucks up qualifying offers next year and contract negotiations with Suzuki.

So next year his QO starts at 6 mil regardless of performance ?

 

[Habspatrol]

It's a really poor return for KK. And we're already super thin at center. Finally it's just one year.

Also I like KK.

I like KK a lot too. I just can't picture paying him $6.1m... and turning down a 1st and a 3rd while we're at it.

 

[GEEMAN]

I'd be tempted to not match.

Agreed , we will stink this year with Weber gone

Might as well go hard tank in a great draft year

Canes might slip a bit , their pick might be decent

6 mil is too much if KK doesn’t turn it up a huge notch this year

It's a really poor return for KK. And we're already super thin at center. Finally it's just one year.

Also I like KK.

We can't qualify him for less than 6.1 millions from now on, so might as well be 4 years. Let him walk. Have to.

 

[Hoiles]

Ugh… I like KK, he scored some big goals this playoffs but I don’t think I’d match with that salary even if the likely low 1st and 3rd isn’t enough for him.

 

[GEEMAN]

I like KK a lot too. I just can't picture paying him $6.1m... and turning down a 1st and a 3rd while we're at it.

What if no team gives him 6.1 mil next year ?

 

[lecoqsportif]

6.1 is stupid. Let him go.

 

[Habspatrol]

What if no team gives him 6.1 mil next year ?

UFA

 

[worm]

We have to match. But starts negotiations with Suzuki asap

Why?

 

[GEEMAN]

UFA

So technically his salary could drop next year

 

[Habspatrol]

So technically his salary could drop next year

If he doesn't get qualified, possible.

 

[HabsFan1]

I’d let him go to Carolina. I’ve always been high on him. But so far he has disappointed but he still has time as he is super young.

 

[GGpX]

This is awesome. I'm not even being sarcastic.

This is a very, very easy decision: You let him walk and get the 1st & a 3rd.

 

[GGpX]

With or without KK on this team, this ain't a good roster.

KK is not the difference between anything, really.

 

[GGpX]

Looking at from Carolina's point of view, this is really stupid.

What? $6.1M for a guy who hasn't shown he's more than a third line center? And if he doesn't play better, you have to give him an increase on the $6.1M or let him walk?

Yeah, good luck with that.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Suzuki is da man. Kotkadingdong can go choke on it.

 

[GGpX]

Why?

Why indeed.

 

[GrandWazoo]

I like KK a lot too. I just can't picture paying him $6.1m... and turning down a 1st and a 3rd while we're at it.

I wouldn't trade KK for Carolina 1st and 3rd. Then you have to factor the contract, which i care less about, especially since it's a year.
