Did anyone see this from Wawrow?


Confirmed.
Kahun is now eligible to become an unrestricted free agent.

Why would anyone trade for Kahun without him having a qualifying offer in place knowing they could get him without giving up any other assets?

I'm guessing it's like the Scott Wilson thing.

Don't qualify and then sign

My only guess:

If he had arbitration rights, there was a chance the arbitrator would award more than they could sign him for as a UFA.

That's all I got.

Just wait until he signs a two-year deal with Toronto.

If it helps

When devil's announced who the qualified and didn't qualify one of the reporters or beat writers noted that while Hayden and Mueller were not qualified that doesn't mean that they won't be re-signed and that lately that's what teams have been doing if the player has arbitration rights


They did note they don't believe they will be back but that it's not uncommon

Remember three hours ago when the prospect we traded up to select said he skates and trains with Kahun?

They have a offer on the table with Kahun, and are taking a big chance that he will sign it.

Buffalo was a great option for him and we believe we might find a solution

That doesn't scream to me we want to get a deal done.

Do you always see sh!t as glass half empty? Lmao.

"We believe we might find a solution" sounds promising to me.

And "Buffalo was a great option for him".


They didn't say, "we're going to see what else is out there"

Dude you realize that this is the same management team that chose Quinn over Rossi right ?

Kahun has good metrics and could have been a value contract but itโ€™s more important to have 18 RHD.

What analytics we are using I have no idea.
