Percentage of the limit makes long -term deals difficult
Eric Macramalla: “With CAP that is increased by $ 25 million to 2027, we already see tension between teams that players want to pay reasonable salaries versus players want the percentage of CAP. Agents see the storage percentage model as reasonable while teams do not. See Kaprizov.”
- Marco d’Amico: “Agents use the sharp projected rise of the salary limit (combined with expansion) to insist on higher CAP% for contract negotiations. In their mind, 10% of the CAP today can probably be 6-7% by 2030. Players who better go in the short term, unless …”
NHL rumors: Blue Jackets and The Senators
Comparisons for Stuart Skinner have shifted a bit this season
Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal: Calgary Flames goalkeeper Dustin Wolf is now the 10th best-paid keeper at a cap of $ 7.5 million, after signing his seven-year-old deal after only 71 NHL matches. What impact will that have on Stuart Skinner’s next contract, because he has 50 play -off games and two trips to the Stanley Cup final?
If Skinner has a strong regular season, the Edmonton Oilers are not looking for a keeper at the Trade Deadline. They will be in a wait -and -see mode with Skinner.
Anaheim Ducks Lukas Dostal, who was an RFA, signed for $ 6.25 million. Dostal has 42 victories in 121 NHL games. Wolf is 37, and Skinner, including play -offs, is at 124.
Kevin Woodley from Ingoal Magazine on Skinner and the Market.
“But it’s everywhere on the map. It is Joey Daccord as a number 1 (in Seattle) and $ 5 million. It is Mackenzie Blackwood with all kinds of success in Colorado and looks like his potential is being fulfilled and he is a $ 5 million goalkeeper (actually $ 5.25 million).
The umbrella feeling is that if you can’t repair it in a free desk, at least, “we know what our husband is and what he is not.” I think the value of Stu Skinner in Edmonton might be higher than anywhere. There are many different competition-wide opinions about Stu. “
NHL -Rumors: predators, Oilers and Carter Hart
Blackwood can be a good comparable age and a big keeper, but have the deals of the younger Wolf and Dostal moved higher than Blackwood’s $ 5.25 million?
If the oilers are looking for a veteran goalkeeper at the deadline, if the New York Islanders and Nashville Predators are outside, they might consider moving Ilya Sorokin ($ 8.25 million for seven years) and Juuse Saros ($ 7.74 million for eight).
