For the Flames, hopefully that’s 2025 and 2026.
don’t #%^* that up by signing a stupid Oiler player to an offer sheet.

4.5 for the Oiler's pair is a huge overpay.

Sure, then give the same offer to Nemec in 2026 when they cannot match that offer. If the Devils matched 4.5 they would have a difficult time signing the other two players they need to sign this year and also signing Nemec in 2026 and qualifying Mercer at 5.5.
