Mëds, Suter can make up to $3M this season.

(and yes the bonuses can be applied to the following season's cap if need be)

Well no cuz...
Yeah..poor wording and not what I meant at all but thanks for being thorough with your provision of data.

...I wonder how Boqvist will perform on a low end contract in Florida.

Will he buy himself a future in the league?

Better?

Gotta think you knew what I was attempting to imply..
Yes but Suter's contract is not actually a "low end contract".

I do believe Boqvist's contract will be a good one for Florida and Suter's a bad one for St Loo.

Not being a dink here Donny, just my OCD kicking in again...

Is that the way you treat your Captain? Or is there more to this player that has yet to be revealed?

I don’t think Trouba is too well liked around the league, teammates as well. Apparently a real swell guy to be around.

even if so, it's surprising to me they can't trade him away with a 2nd round pick sweetener or something easier to swallow then a buy out. I don't follow NYR too closely but I didn't think he could no longer play!

If you've got Trouba
Wait don't run
This kinda Trouba is lots of fun

....not buying the locker room issues.

Bring him on.

The offer is now a 7th and you eat 4 mill NYR.

Take it or leave it.

Don't even think about it, should be Pop O Matic if NYR comes sniffing round with an offer.

Just watching elbows being thrown at McD would be worth it.

In case some where wondering what the hell we are going on about.

I find it depressing that I remember every word of that jingle. :(

Suter will be the highest paid player in hockey this year... :shock:
His manager loves it!

Byfield signed a five year deal. 5 x $6.25

That’s a lot of scratch for someone who just potted 20 goals for the first time in his career after four seasons split with the big club. As long as it ties up cap space for a division rival, I guess.

6.25 million is not a lot of scratch for a 21 year old power forward type who is just beginning to unlock his game and scored 55 points (20 goals). Its not that different than what a 29 year old UFA coming off a season like that with a history of second line play would get, with one major difference -- Byfield has the capacity to do a lot more than what he's done to date. If he holds serve, its not a terrible contract. If he improves slightly, its a win for LA. And if he turns into a core Kings player, it is a steal. If he stick at center (he's bounced between wing and center), its a greater steal. And from what I can tell, he's pretty good all over the ice, so even if his offensive numbers stagnate, he's going to add value.

And who regresses at this age? Patrick Laine and guys with bad injuries, I suppose. But the point is it is rare. The Kings should be happy to get him at this price through the RFA years, and, IMO, are more likely to regret not getting more UFA years than they are to regret paying him $6.25M.
