There is word that it is unlikely ANA will give a qualifying offer to Max Comtois this week. The forward is expected to become a UFA, available to everyone

This is a big, quick, and skilled forward that is coveted by all teams, but he is definitely at a buy-low moment of his career. He put up 33 points in 55 games a couple years ago, but only had 19 in 64 last year. According to a few forums, he has struggled with puck-luck, and seems to need a change of scenery.
If we could get him for under 2.5 million per year, I think it is a no-brainer to give it a shot. Anything over that might be a bit of a risk, but him being so young, inconsistency is expected.
Thoughts?
