Any truth to the rumour that Lou has since snuffed out those sources?

I thought he might go for 4 to be a UFA at the end of his contract

He'll get at least 10 on his next one with that back loaded contract so it doesnt really matter much, especially with a player of his caliber. He could just take a 10 mil bridge into his UFA years if he really dislikes NYI, lol

The contracts qualifying offer is 120% of the average. So the QO is $8.4 million. A change was made in the collective agreement last year

I'm happy Barzal ended his holdout before the start of the season

Wonder if there are any photos out there of him at 12 in his Canucks pajamas...
