Tricky thing for Klingberg is the coach using him smartly.
Dumbass, he acquired McCann.I bet Bert goes to PP1 and they bring one of the big boys in to run PP2. Doesn't matter really.. They're loaded offensively. It's kind of crazy that this is the first time we can say this about a team with Matthews, Marner, Nylander and Tavares. Not saying Tre's guys (particularly Klingberg) will work out, but man Dubas tripped over his own dick and overthought everything. So many years without him even trying to improve their offense.
Freidman did suggest that if Matthews goes a bit lower, Willy is likely to as well. He doesn't want to be the only one to settle for less. I don't blame him if true. It starts at the top.Based on comparables, Willy wouldn’t be unreasonable to not settle for something above $9M.
I think he also knows full well that even if he leaves money on the table, Auston & Mitch sure as fuck won’t take a penny less than the absolute maximum they can squeeze out of the team. So any money he doesn’t take will just go straight into their pockets.
I just hope Tre is better than Dubas at negotiating contracts too.
Huberdeau thinks he's great at it.I just hope Tre is better than Dubas at negotiating contracts too.
Negotiating contracts in Calgary is probably a lot like being the least popular kid in school and trying to get people to come to your dance party. Likely no bearing on his current situation.Hope so too, but his track record is less than encouraging.
