I was gonna say...if he does go there, then there’s ZERO chance they re up Marner and some of their other RFA’s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LakeLivin Report post Posted June 22 2 hours ago, coastal_caniac said: . . . On Aho, I suspect he will end up around just under 8-mil AAV. I was thinking just over $8m up to $8.5m for a longer term deal (Draisaitl = $8.5 x 8). My fear is that Aho's agent is piggybacking Marner's ask, which is reportedly in the range of $10.5 x 5. Too much $, especially for a shorter term. When I look at the big picture I'm ok with the Canes negotiating, as long as the negotiation doesn't turn particularly contentious. Sure we want to get Aho signed as soon as possible, but I suspect the committee is looking not only at our small market budget, but also at the effect Aho's contract might have on the rest of the team when it comes to contracts, past as well as future. To wit, could a $10m+ AAV Aho contract leave players like Turbo, Slavin and Pesce feeling like fools for recently signing great, long term team friendly deals? And if not now, you can bet it would effect future negotiations. Look at the Leafs when it comes to knock on effects after giving Tavares and Matthews big money. Gotta believe that contributed to the difficulties in reaching an agreement with Nylander, as well as Marner's "outsized" ask right now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spyglass88 Report post Posted June 22 Capfriendly says Marleau HAS a NMC. So he must have agreed to come here. But why? Thinking that this is more about getting the 1st round pick than about Marleau. Probably more to come. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can we trade him to the Sharks or something? If we are buying him out Im beyond confused. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he doesnt play here and wants to go there we could trade him to them and retain part of his salary... question is who would we want/get from them? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spyglass88 Report post Posted June 22 (edited) If I'm reading Capfriendly right, the buyout calculator says that it will cost us $833,333 for Marleau's contract. But maybe I'm reading this wrong? Not sure what "post-buyout earnings" means, but that's 3.8 million. Edited June 22 by spyglass88 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But maybe I'm reading this wrong? Cost to buy him out is 833333 because of his actual salary at 2/3rds. We still owe all the other signing bonus money Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could be a steal if they get a top 10 pick next season, and suck in 2021, cause we would then get their 21 pick no matter what. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
