    It sounds like Matt Duchene will join the #preds. Expect his contract to come in with an $8M AAV.

    I really thought Montreal was gonna pull off this signing. Apparently not.

    Some scuttlebutt that MTL is using their cap space on an offer sheet. Which I know is silly talk, offer sheets don't happen but could be fun if one finally did! MTL has spent all day collecting picks and clearing cap.

    As for Duchene, this came in cheaper than I expected, so a decent deal for Nashville.

    Poile is a slim customer.

    Wow. State taxes factor into his take home pay here but the cap is the same everywhere and Duchene at $8MM AAV vs Hayes at $7.14MM is mind boggling.

    Some people were saying the same thing about Turris' contract...

    Great deal for the Preds! Next move for Nashville is to find a team to trade Turris to and free up more cap space to acquire another top 6 player(a winger like Lee, Ferland, Nyquist etc)

    I saw this the other day. Not sure if the numbers are completely accurate, but probably not far off. This is a big reason why Montreal can't land bug name FAs.

    $9M salary in Montreal results in take home pay of $4.2M. It’s $5.7M in Nashville. @CapFriendly
    10 Team, Points Only, Cash League

    25 Man Roster (no position), top 20 point getters count at end of month
    Keep 20/25 at seasons end, Cut 5 to FA for redrafting
    Goalie points W=2pt L=-1pt SHO=2pt

    Stamkos, Tavares, Eichel, Mercer, JRobertson, RThomas, Kucherov, Nugent-Hopkins, Tuch, KConnor, Necas, Point, Konecny, SJarvis, Cozenz, Morrissey, Bouchard, Josi, Novak, Tolvanen, Peterka, Brink

    Will say, I’m surprised most people don’t mind the salary. As someone who tends to like Duchene more than most, I think this is a pretty awful contract.

    On the counter point, boy is Granlund/Duchene on your second line a massive upgrade from Fiala/Turris
