I don't find it shocking he doesn't want to commit eight years to Calgary. And given the 7 year deal the $76M may indeed be less. But I don't see it being, say, $13M less ($9M year). More like $6M less for the "second leading scorer in the league." That puts him smack dab in Jeff Skinner territory. And pretty much fits the available cap space... Happy to be wrong.

Tender Frost (which they did), cut Lindblom (which they did), sign Gaudreau (as is speculated), LTIR Ellis. They can just about squeeze all that into available cap space, run with 20 on the roster. Presuming ol' JQH accepts ~$9.5M. (Then, don't tell Occ, but they trade Sanheim to get space to add (don't tell Coach) cup winning depth forward NAK to the roster). Easy peasy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brewin Flames Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 2 hours ago, OccamsRazor said: They have till mid night to ink the deal or they can only offer a 7 year deal like every other team tomorrow. The Calgary Flames have reportedly offered Johnny Gaudreau a contract in excess of eight-years, $80 million. Gaudreau scored 40 goals and 115 points in 82 contests in 2021-22, so naturally he has tons of leverage. That said, it's hard to see how Gaudreau could possibly get much more on the open market, especially given that other teams can't offer him more than seven years. If the Flames have indeed made him that kind of offer and he decides to sign elsewhere, then he'll have probably made the decision for reasons other than money.

Brewin Flames Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) If JG does not come back to the flames, it won't be because of money....

I heard that. So what did they get trading Sanheim??? Shirley not just cap space and coaches favorite X Flyer (he will be ecstatic) Chuck will be hung at dawn.

pilldoc Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 @OccamsRazor great band ....very underrated. However with the rise of grunge from the Seattle scene and the fact the group went through numerous lineup changes during the 1990's, they never achieved the success they had during the late 80's.

OccamsRazor Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Well maybe Chuckles has been foiled...he has spent his was of 2nd round picks so soon. But he does have two 1st round picks next season burning a hole in his pocket now. Besides if this season bombs he won't be around to use them. I think they switch to Danny B. I guess what will one more year of JVR hurt...i don't have to watch.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
