That means the Flames would get a 23 year old RW and a 21 year old right handed defense man. And doing this would potentially shuffle the roster and guys would be moved out to upgrade other players or re-aquire those picks. Would you guys give up the compensation of our:
2016 1st (Hamilton)
2016 2nd (Toffoli)
2016 3rd (Hamilton)
(I vaguely remember someone saying compensation picks for the players would be NEXT year as the 2015 draft would have already happened) |
They will match instantly and thank you for signing their guys to very reasonable contracts.
If you want an offer sheet to have a chance of not being matched you need to make the cap hit for those guys so heinous, that they have to consider dismantling their core (i.e. trade them away) to keep those players on their team.
The cap hits you posted are pretty fair value (some would say bargains) for those two players and easily manageable by their respective team.
