Popped up on NHL.com...Pietrangelo signed to a 7-year deal. ($6.5 million per)

As a Pietrangelo owner im pumped he signed for less than 7.

Yup solid value. Esp when the tier of Phaneuf, Subban, Suter, Weber, Doughty should all be more expensive than that in a year.

I bet we lose kessel to ufa

[Mike]

dion guess: 6 *6m re-signing

[The BBKL Insider]

I think he'll sign for what he's making now
6 x 6.8 is my guess

[KapG]

I bet we lose kessel to ufa

This would be the absolute worst thing that could happen to us. Sad thing is I could see it happning too.

[Shoalzie]

Cowen has signed...4 years, $12 million.

[The BBKL Insider]

Good deal for both imo.

[The BBKL Insider]

And on kessel, I was reading something on sportsnet that said (pure speculation) that he'd get 8+ as a ufa on the open market.

[Lee]

Can't get an 8 yr deal

[Shoalzie]

I assume he meant $8 million...

[The BBKL Insider]

ya i meant 8mil per, sorry

some writer on sportsnet said he'd get (speculation) 8mil + over 7 years.

[thom54]

he's probably looking at around that I'm assuming, check out Perry's deal.

[Shoalzie]

7 years is the limit for signing another team's free agent...Kessel could get 8 years if he stays with the Leafs.

[KapG]

shoalzie is right

[The BBKL Insider]

yes, but i meant cap!

if i were nonis i'd offer up 7.5 over 8 years

get that shit done nonis

[KapG]

yup get it done now so the toronto media cant make it a distraction./

[The BBKL Insider]

i agree, get kessel done first, dion said he'd negotiate during the season.

IMO kessel wants out anyways, but who knows. Thank goodness Nonis talked burke into the Schenn/JVR deal, just incase we lose kessel he's our next best scorer IMO

[KapG]

if there is any question that he wants out and you cant get a deal done right now...id shop him before the season gets too far underway
