With the cap going up, salaries are bound to increase, so I would have absolutely no problem giving him 3 X 4.5M. I think his production is going to increase quite a bit over the next three seasons.

I don't like giving him that much, it sets a bad precedent for overpaying players based on what they have produced. I think 3x3.5 is fair for what he has shown. If he wants 4.5 I would want a 5 year commitment.

I’m here for the scoops from Royle, Sec, Diss, Rasta, etc., those are the posts I actually care about. I usually skip most of the opinion stuff.

Me too please

Same here. I enjoy the discussions on trade speculations and hypothetical trade scenarios as well but the most intriguing posts are those with insider info.

I really hope there isn't going to be a private chat. Good way to degrade the value of this beloved website.

You can always DM other posters.

Yeah for a 3 year deal, I don't think $4.5 is bad for the Flames.

Although surprised Zary wouldn't want 2 year deal. Flames have shown willingness to pay up after one good season. Sharangovich and Cornato are examples. Zary is a confident guy apparently, he could really cash in next summer with an extension after a good season.

I don’t post here often but enjoy the content. Came to thank Sec, Royal, and other top contributors for their information.

Don’t let a handful of fools ruin it for you. I think some people just have a bad day, week, month or whatever and need to try to ‘win on the internet’ to make themselves feel better.

There will always be a few… but please don’t let them bring you down. The majority here appreciate your contributions!

Win on the internet is a good one. Bravo! I dig it.

Personally (I'm probably in the minority) the only reason I check this thread is to read the rumours from Sec, Royle, Rasta etc.

I don't care if it doesn't amount to anything - its fun to speculate and wonder.

The constant fighting and bickering is just the worst. Its beyond off-putting
