Oh what the fuck, lmao

Yesterday: "We'LL MaTcH aNY OfFeR!"

You dumb bastards.

[Obsidian]

Honestly I'd be very tempted not to match that. I don't actually think the Flyers are all that good and having two first round picks for the next four years, at least one of which will be pretty high, is very tempting to just start over with.

[Richybear]

Yeah, he's not "Lets give this guy the highest contract in the league" level. at all. LOL

Would be even funnier if they were gonna do that to Bedard and were like
*checks TSN*
"He dead, scratch that out and put Carlsson!"

[Obsidian]

He had 67 points in 70 games last season, there's really no way to justify paying him 18M outside of having too much ego to let Philly call your bluff.

Also someone should absolutely be sending an offer sheet like this to Fantilli and Bedard, lol.

[Richybear]

Grier already spamming Celebrini's agent like "LETS TALK EXTENSION RIGHT THE FUCK NOW" LOL

[DFJS]

Fucking Verbeek playing hardball just fucked our cap space. That offer sheet takes more than half our remaining cap space. Now if someone does offer sheets Cutter were SOL.

[Obsidian]

Also, lol Sens

This is one of the most fun off-season in years.

[Outlaw]

I guess the Flyers are going to pay the rest of their players minor league wages next year and maybe throw 'em a cheese steak every once and a while.

Thankfully he's not eligible for offer sheets - the idea was thrown around on Twitter to throw almost the same at him to watch Verbeek struggle and tie up all remaining cash into 2 players.

Thats what my worry was until i saw puckpedia said he wasn't offer sheet eligible. Imo this is the worst off season in Ducks history. Dont resign Trouba, trade Carlson, Gudas and McTavish. Let Harkins, Johnston and Viel all walk. Sign more guys for your minor league squad then the main club. And to top it off you let your best player get offer sheeted because your too damn cheep to sign him on July 1st losing half of your available cap space in the process.

Dam !!

He's getting that Fedorov bag.

$39 million in the first year.

You can't win a cup paying one guy $18mil. Way too large a percentage of your budget. What a bunch of clowns

Edit: 20mil the first year?!

It's massively front loaded. 2 bonuses of $19.95 million and $18.1 million in 12 months.

So it would be $39 million in the first year.

Lose-lose for Pat Verbeek. This is more ruthless than the Blues offer sheets for Holloway and Broberg.

Pavel Mintyukov's agent.
