The World Cup is 20 days away, and these participants are without contracts:

Jacob Trouba
Johnny Gaudreau
Nikita Kucherov
Tobias Reider

I just don't see these guys taking on the risks associated with playing in this tournament, while not having an NHL contract in place. It's going to be an interesting 3 weeks!

Semi-related: I totally forgot that Filip Forsberg had signed a 6yr/6AAV deal. The Flames are surely using this as a comparable to Gaudreau, and hoping Kucherov signs something similar. Perhaps Treliving is holding firm, and offering the same contract that Monahan just signed.
