Issue is the UFA market is crap. So John has to be signed.

He’s just gotta be paid according to his worth. Which is a 50 point, second line center in the playoffs that is 35.
3-4 years $4-5 mill tops.
If he wants a Stankos contract he can go to Nashville.

Stammer dropped a 40 piece in his UFA season and has multiple time champion stink.

$8 mill is Crosby money. Don’t be a Trotz.
he’s been great this year, but his regular season performance has never been the problem, and his play will most likely deteriorate over the next deal.
He’ll be fine with a ROR contract.

JT has looked like the same for large chunks of the 2 seasons before this one as well.
We play a much kinder style to his lack of foot speed now though.

Well I hear Utah is really nice.
16 and 91 are getting paid regardless of their team and player success in the playoffs
Some team will give JT 3-4 years at near Stammer money

That's one team that I feel will really throw money at UFAs this summer.

Absolute top dollar will no doubt be available to both Mitch & JT on the UFA market.
If that’s what they want through, then let them go get it somewhere else.
16 has Trev by the nuts , you can't replace him
JT has to decide discount or be a money whore like Stammer

I think most were surprised that stamkos got that deal and it's worked out so badly for both team and player that i doubt anyone is lining up to use that as a comparable.
For me, the smart move would be to offer JT something akin to the Tanev deal. More years lower caphit.

His playoff production is extremely replaceable.
Especially if, once again, Mitch wants to rinse this franchise for an above-market deal. I’d still rather let him walk in that scenario.

So Stammer got $4m more in guaranteed money to play on a shit team, and have way higher expectations on him. And to earn any more than that he'll have to decide whether he wants to play at 39 for league min somewhere. Instead of getting to play on an elite contender with only complementary player expectations in a city where he was already a legend, and "retire" whenever he felt like it and still get all his money, with likely a cushy front office / team ambassador job set up for him at many more millions for life.
Dumb, dumb Stammer.

athletes are not generally known for their intelligence.
and to the extent they defer to their agents... well, Stammer's agent likely earned more from the NSH deal than he would have from TBY...
