What PPG player making under 7M has ever been traded? Value is high its not a homer take.
I’m sure CGY management wants to go into next season with same group of producers that fizzled in playoffs 2 straight years.

As well, if they know JG is a flight risk, they may not want to chance losing him for nothing in 2 seasons. The NTC kicking in does create this window.

Jeff Skinner was a 40 goal scorer making under 7m.
Phil Kessel was dealt last year after having 82 points, his contract was under 7m due to retention.

Is JG better then 2 time Stanley Cup Assassin Phil Kessel? He may have been Conn Smythe winner the 1st time.
