Giving an 8 year deal to anybody at this stage of the franchise scares the living poop out of me.
- buffalofan19

It would be a 7 year deal, so we good right? 😂😅

5.5 to 6 mil if he signs long term this summer

he could get 8 mil if he puts another strong year up and wait 12 months

or he could have a bad year and it drops to 4.5 mil if he waits

IMO and assuming Adams does not overpay to retain the core
- homiedclown

What do you consider long term?

Why would Tage sign a long term deal at under what he believes to be his market value? Why wouldn't he wait until after next season?

long term I consider 5-8 years

I think if he takes the offer 5.5 to 6 mil per he is set for life

if he gets a bad injury, he is not set for life

there is always risk when you bet on yourself with 1 year left and you had 1 good year and he is taking a risk if he is banking on himself to replicate what he did last year

I'm fine without them and I also recognize their on-ice impact.

Is Tage a good case for Adams to get ahead of the game for once.

I know the article is old

portillo and the panther first?

it could backfire and hand string him like connolly did darcy though

it will be interesting to see how it plays out

eh. no.

I sure hope Dahlin wants to be here long term.

He didn't when he signed his most recent contract.

Going to be a very big offseason after the 22-23 season.

Adams is actually going to have to make long term decisions on players.
- kingcong39

How did you discern this?
I see it as a very smart move by his Agent to not commit him to 8 years when the organization was in total disarray. It gave Dahlin the time to evaluate what is going on. To me, that is at opposite ends of "he didn't want to be here"
His comments this season should allay those fears...as long as the Org continues to show they "have it together. He is a central figure in the Band of Brothers culture being built here.

Ones a bigot POS. And the other had 40 pts max here b4.. He plays with Mcdavid now. Not Mitts at center

What if team 12 wins the first lottery, and team 6 wins the 2nd lottery?

Does team 12 get to pick 2nd and team 6 picks 3rd?
- kingcong39

From what I read, 2 Lotterys,
1st for #1 OA,
2nd for #2 OA

If your scenario comes true, I'd say the 12th team gets bumped back to #3, since the 2nd Lottery Ball Drop is for #2 OA.

(frank) that guy

Ek9 likes buffalo, so requirements are met to sign him this offseason ☝️

Gerbe said he turned down an offer and Buffalo wasnt thrilled with him doing so.

I'd say signing great28 to a 3 year deal was " get ahead of the game for once".

Right at the beginning of KA'S gm career

I just did a lotto sim and it had us only moving up to 2nd(7 spots) and Columbus 3rd (9 spots).

Montreal stayed at #1.


Hows this work?

maybe next time you won't trade our entire 2022 draft for Connor Hellebuyck.

He's not worth much more than the contract he got.

Also said not to worry about Johnson and Portillo

As far as I recall, the feeling isn't mutual. He's a leading candidate in the Beane-Adams Low Character Desirability Metric.

Sounds like maybe Columbus won but Buffalo bumped them down after winning lottery 2? There's a sample of what kingcong was asking about. Keep in mind it's just a fan site tho, so who knows if the simulator got it right.
