Yep they could lower it to 85% of 6M or 5.1 M if they absolutely win the arbitration..... 18 months after some idiot GM offered a 1st 2nd and 3rd plus the 6M contract. They can also walk away and give up all rights to the player if the arbitrator goes nuts (gives Feaster a call) and gives ROR more.
Team taking a player to arbitration to lower their contract..... would this be the first.
I did not say that Landeskog was a 30 pts player.... He currently is coming off a 40 pts season ... after a 52 pt rookie year. There is no proof of a vast improvement as you implied in a previous post, in fact Landeskog and the Avs have to be disappointed in his performance last year.
Hard to think what kind of contract they would have given him had he actually improved last year and went a PPG like Eberle's 2nd year??
