They already have offered Karlsson a contract extension.
Injuries are only concern. He is one of the most complete players in the league right now, and not being nominated for a selke doesn?t change that. That award always goes to centres. He?s a passer, not a pure goal scorer, so the 30 goal mark is not important here. Yes he?s never score 65 points in actuality but he?s been on pace many times. 62 in 58 games this year on a bad team. He?s an elite forward in the game, very underrated unless you follow him and the sens closely
You can?t compare it to Gaudreau or Pasternak , both were rookies coming off ELCs. Stone is a completely different player than both as well, both are better scorers than him but stone contributes in other areas. For example The sens have a better pure goal scorer on the team in Hoffman but the two aren?t comparable players, Stone is much better and more valuable
And no I wouldn?t compare his deal to bobby Ryan?s, who sens had to sign for PR reasons and his past accomplishments.
I agree with you that he won?t get 8. $6 would be a huge steal for the team. He should be valued as $7.
PS The sens have never campaigned for karlsson to take a discount. That?s all media driven bs. They have never said anything other than they will offer him a contract.
Nice discussion sir.
Oh yeah I wouldn?t take him at his new deal for fantasy to be honest

Well, they've certainly been able to discuss framework and numbers with his agent at prior times, so the two sides should have an idea. I'd bet the contract proposal itself is way over half done, with allthe various boilerplate language and stuff ready, they just need to get payment, term, and any extra clauses ready.

Unfortunately Ottawa keeps backing itself into a corner every time Melnyk opens his mouth. We are right back where we were when we had to give Ryan all the money. We gotta pay through the nose again just to entice people to sign
