What do you think about Fridge’s statement that he thinks McDavid will consider Philly when he hits UFA?
That’s been out there before. I forget the original source, one of the Canadian “insiders” I think. Interesting if true. Werenski is up in 2 years too.
Even with the cap inflation, Zegras got a very good deal for himself. He wasn’t going to get the Aho deal, but he got more than 9 million and will still be in his prime when he’s a UFA. GOod deal for both sides.
Oh yeah, Zegras wants to be here and signed so it’s a good deal for both sides. The Flyers, in no way, overpaid. 7.5% of the cap is what Zegras has already proved to be in my view. I think there should be more debate over what it should take to be a 10% of the cap guy, as just one example. How much is a solid Top 4 Dman worth? More than 5%, that’s for sure. Now a 10% guy can be paired up with an ELC guy and hopefully you’ve got one of your best players and your best young player at maybe 11%. That can look great so long as you don’t have too many guys at 10%. Shorter term deals are clearly the way forward for a while. Not that many top guys were going UFA anyway so what’s the big deal?

I think the Zegras side left some money on the table. He got paid four years out for the player he is right now, not the player with some upside I think he is. I don’t have a problem with a prove it deal based on past performance but the term is a year too long. A lot of guys are getting paid on potential and not results.
I was surprised it was four years. Maybe it was a compromise term.
