EMELINATOR Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 It’s happening! But that has to be matched, no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t say this often, but WELL DONE MB ? So does this rule out our signing any UFAs?

BCHabnut Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Are the signing bonuses a tax thing? What's the advantage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low revenue teams/cheap owners hate big signing bonuses because it's a lump sum payment all at once. Some teams don't have that kind of money all at once.

BCHabnut Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 The owner may not be happy to habs over that 11.3 lump sum right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REV-G Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I love this move! Question. Is Montreal allowed to offer something additional to Carolina, a prospect, to entice them not to match the offer sheet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDriveFor25 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I wish it was for 9.1 or 9.2.. I know it’s only $500k more but tougher to match.. I’m hoping Canes don’t match but guessing they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment it's just an unsigned offer sheet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a signed offer sheet. No trade option remains - if they match, they can't deal him for a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Drouin - Aho - Gallagher Domi - Kotkaniemi - Byron Tatar - Danault - Armia Lehkonen - Thompson - Weal Poehling, Evans, Suzuki as potential future C's... Habs would rival the rest of the Atlantic division for centre depth with that move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
