Pre-Gaudreau's decision Treliving said something to the effect of "well if he doesn't sign, we will pivot", and a lot of people sneered at that.

Hell of a pivot.

But that hypothetical situation probably isn't an option. Kadri isn't signing for 3 years at age 32.

It's more likely 5 years at $8.5 mil vs 7 x $7 mil. I pick option 2.

Hopefully it's a reasonable deal if he does give him 7.
Not if we win a Stanley cup. I could care less about the term

Went from "nobody will sign in Calgary" to NHLs 2nd leading scorer and top free agent center sign long term

Lou is a really good GM over the course of his career. But big moves aren't really his thing. Especially hidden contracts.

Flames could give him 7x15 and it would be worth it if they win

Friedman now saying MTL as well. Wonder how the Habs are clearing space? They are close to the cap themselves

And added a top-pairing D-man, a 1st round pick, and a prospect who will probably play in the NHL.
