Default Huberdeau an offer sheet target?

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie FLA has given RFA Jonathan Huberdeau what it is terming its best offer on 2 year bridge deal. Huberdeau is still mulling it over.


Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
A couple of teams have been kicking tires on Huberdeau offer sheet but it remains to be seen whether any are bold enough to take the plunge.

Going to cost a pretty penny in draft picks to pry him out of FLA. Is he worth close to what we gave up for Hamilton? Less? I feel like Tallon would match anything under the 5.75m a year.

I wonder who is considering the offer sheet? Vancouver needs a player like this in their lineup. Anaheim can afford it but not sure they would do it. The Devils need a good young forward.

Florida is one of those teams that you really aren't going to fear making an enemy out of with an offer sheet

I mean, I know hes only 22, but his absolute best has been 54 points.

And people think we overpaid for Frolik...

I thought it was a set number of picks on an offer sheet?

Depending on the dollars, yeah. The more you offer the more/better picks you give up.

So if Edmonton offer-sheets him and theres one or two first rounders in there you take that and walk away laughing all day.

So then offer him like 3.7 mill for 2 years. He has to be better than most 1st rounders that you could get.

I've been on a #2 LW kick for a week now an this guy would be n optimal acquisition. If you treat dealing another 1st round pick with the same thinking as to why you spend one on Dougie Hamilton, this is a no brainer.

I just can't see Tallon letting this guy go for fair market value. He's gonna want more.

Worth a 1st, 2nd, 3rd IMO

Surprised a team hasn't moved on it yet.

Maybe the internal price is already higher?

A two year deal at 5.4 would probably really piss Flordia off at the very least

He still has to be willing to sign the offer and I'm sure Florida has already offered something better than that. If not pretty sure they wouldn't mind matching that. Any chance to land him I think you gotta be offering minimum 5+.

Since we've fast tracked our rebuild in the past year with the breakout of our kids and acquisition of Hamilton, I'd say why not? We should be looking at moves that can impact us within two 2 seasons, as I think our window to compete may truly open after this year. Our 1st rounder in the upcoming draft wouldn't be high anyways.

Huberdeau is forward (lite) version of acquiring a Dougie. Is an established player already, yet still very young with potential.

Make a 2 x 5.5mil offer

Look at trading Raymond/Wideman to recuperate picks at the deadline.

As someone who pays very little attention to minor hockey, what's the draft crop like for the next couple years? I know this year was the mother load, but is next a deep draft, or just a few shining stars?

Raymond gets you nothing and Wideman is better if we keep him, his return would be....disappointing.

Wideman probably be easier to deal once he has a year remaining on his deal.

So is your point that he was able to do quite a bit better in his 2.5 seasons than Frolik was ever able to do in his career? Huberdeau has huge potential and people are suggesting paying him a big contract to steal him away cause he's a potential first line stud. This isn't the time to try and justify the Frolik contract as they're not at all comparable.
