I'd be very happy with that, but I think he gets the full 8 years at somewhere between 62-65 million.

The way he plays this year will determine a lot I think. Does he have another 80 pt season? Or does he have a 60 point season (not that a 60 pt season is bad). If we see him reach 80 or if he's in the top 10 of scoring, then I think he gets well over 8 mil per.

Possibly, but I think his extension is done by the start of the season. If not, and he goes out and puts up 25+ goals and 80+ points, he will be looking at 8 years and 68 million minimum.

I've watched this at least 200 times today. Perhaps the greatest video of all time.

Saw that on Twitter last night. Hilarious!

Tarasenko got more than that as an RFA after scoring 135 points in 179 games (0.75 P/G).

Over the same three year period Voracek scored 189 points in 212 games (0.89 P/G).

You do think they'll have it done by the seasons start? I hope so, we just need him signed.

8 years @ 62 million

7.75 cap hit

how much less?

Not much less. I think the Tarasenko deal is a good benchmark.

Possibility the deal is done before the season even starts.

I think his deal gets done by October and I'm guessing 8 years, 63 million.
16-17 11 million (9 in bonus)
17-18 9 million (7 in bonus)
18-19 8 million (5 in bonus)
19-20 same as 18-19
20-21 same as 18-19
21-22 7 million (5 in bonus)
22-23 6 million
23-24 same as 22-23

They can't put down the whoppers

So what's Jake going to come in at?

I think same cap hit as G.

That wouldn't surprise me at all.

It's like having Desjardins again.

Sounds low to me. If it's a 7 year deal I think it'll be at least $8m per

Oh, that's a given.

I decided after the last lockout that if there was another one, I am done with the NHL. I almost walked away from the sport after the last one but decided to stick around. Even then, I wasn't rearranging my life around Flyers games any more.

But these owners continue to poop on us every 5 or 7 years.

The Tarasenko contract is the beginning of the end.

so did we get Bobby Ryan yet?

Was there a single trace of an accent with Provorov? Geez....kid seems polished already with his language skills.

No, but I hear there has been a sighting at the King of Pizza on Route 70.

Stay tuned!

Is that Cherry Hill's own Bobby Ryan? Even though he spent most of his young life in California, and considers himself from California?

IIRC Bobby Ryan is California slang for over rated.
