Lateralous Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 23 minutes ago, MB3 said: Why would Seattle waste an expansion slot on an impending UFA if they plan to just outbid everyone anyway? You kinda get the sense that Landeskog wants to get paiiiiid this summer and it’s unlikely he’d simply sign with them before seeing who else was out there. Because they could have done it today before any other teams not named the Avalanche could get involved. Not sure he is hell bent on seeing what’s out there, he may just want more than the 5 million Sakic is offering. If they did reach a deal they would clearly be waiting to announce it until tomorrow for the drama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't make a ton of sense for the Kraken to waste that selection on Landeskog when there are other good players that will be available from Colorado. The relationship has taken a big hit apparently and a deal seems a long way off. The Avs have made three offers so far. Given the 48 hour advance negotiation window they aren't really risking anything, they can talk to all the unprotected UFA's and if they don't sign they still get another selection, so it's low risk. If I was the GM I would be tempted to negotiate to see what the expectation is, not agree to a deal, make another selection and then circle back when they are UFA if you still have the space. 8 hours ago, Lateralous said: There's too much smoke about the Avs and GL being super far apart on salary for that to be the case, isn't there? That would be an all time con job if you're right. Seen the same thing be reported , deal is not close. 7 hours ago, MB3 said: Why would Seattle waste an expansion slot on an impending UFA if they plan to just outbid everyone anyway?

Agreed, If I were Landeskog I would be looking to take this all the way now and see what's on offer. There are going to be plenty of deals there.

There are definitely some good players out there, aside from the free agents. I can’t imagine they would draft, sign and trade one of those, but I guess technically they could and that guy could get the 8th year?

SterioDesign Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 they also signed Jamie Oleksiak from Dallas... so it's making it less likely that they pick subban or butcher too considering who they can actually pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, then Carolina doesn't have to give up Bean or Niederreider in the draft which would have weakened them further.

Trying to stay optimistic about this offseason, but I get the feeling Fitz is going to be sitting on an ever-growing pile of cap space, and we'll be lamenting that with ALL THAT MONEY HOW COULD THE DEVILS NOT MANAGE ONE MAJOR SIGNING?! Not even saying it will be on him...just that "If you build a massive mountain of cap room...they still won't fvcking come..." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
