King Hank should get $8 a season. The only thing saving Boston now is the cap will end up going up

Lundqvist is happy

Every goalie in the top 15 is happy. The benchmark for a good goalie, not great, is now 7 million.

Same situation as Miller though.

Will be 32 when his new deal kicks in.

Tough to give guys max length deals at that age IMO.

I've got no qualms about STL being a possible landing spot, I mean it makes sense for both sides I'm just getting sick of hearing that every little move either team makes is all about this big trade that may never happen. Time will tell I guess.

Someone remind me.... what was the point of the lock out again? Wasnt it to stop the insane contracts?

Giroux, rask, getzlaf, perry, clarkson, etc...

All signed since the lockout

Sedins, vanek, miller, dustin brown, duchene, landeskog, RoR, Piets, Subban, could all ne making 7+m per on their nezt deals

Agreed...

I think there should be a max.... look at the nfl... 20M QBs is ridiculous to think about..

Inflation and hoping for the bigger contract won't stop...

no, the point of the lockouts was for owners to squeeze money out of the players as much as possible because the owners spend money like drunken sailors. they will continue to spend money like drunken sailors, they just will be giving less of the pie to the players then they used to. Star players get paid about the same but fringe players get a lot less. that's how that works.
