Nurse contract hurting them in so many ways it's insanse
@SapperRJMorgan22 күн бұрын
Yeah I woulda considered trading Nurse instead of losing Broberg but they clearly know more than I do.

If Broberg doesnt play to the $4.5 mil, it's only a 2-year contract, so it won't crush them contract-wise.

agreed, this is purely an f you to Bowman. the blues have the cap space to eat these contracts for 2 years.

But the renewal after that would QO of 5 million or so. Unless he’s willing to sign a long-term deal for cheaper. Still a risk.

@@Velociti123 Well if he doesnt play up to that level of pay, you just walk away and get 2 years of play for a 2nd round pick. Worth the risk for an 8th overall pick

The cap hit doesn't matter for St Louis. They have over 14 min space . He doesn't have to be comparable to other 4 million dollar defenseman. There is literally no risk for them because they wouldn't be near the cap anyways.

If you're trying to low ball a guy, you shouldn't be shocked if they jump at the chance to get paid. This is a win win for the Blues, where they needed a little help as a playoff bubble team trying to get into the second season.

Broberg showed much promise in the playoffs. He got a offer from St L. he can make the most of it. Edm has kind of painted themselves into a corner with all those bigger contracts so they should have saw this coming. I dont think Bg is going to set the world on fire next season but i think he'll be a good bottom or middle pairing.

Not sure it’s that much of a risk for St. Louis they have cap space he’s young it’s 2 yr contract not 5-6 yrs At worst they could waive him in a yr if he’s not worth contract so they’d clear a mill in cap savings Meanwhile Edmonton loses a potential top 4 dman

I think that is exactly it.. there is a study of the value of a 2nd round pick.. AND on top of that drafting a 2nd round d-man.. its a 12% chance for the guy to even pan out to play 200 games in the NHL.. (d-man).. at this point does Broberg have better than a 12% chance of playing 200 games?.. and plus.. even if u drafted TODAY.. its like 2-3 years.. before you would see the player even "Try" to make the team..

I wonder what Willander gets in Vancouver if Broberg gets 4.5 m

You cant use an offer sheet as a comparable. Its totally not the same.

As a canucks homer who hates the leafs and Mattews, hell be fine. Already fully in the limelight and seems to enjoy all the attention. I mean, how else do u justify that fucking awful mustache
