Replacing Tanev signing Danault

Created by: Willian_Cardoso
Team: 2021-22 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 21, 2021
Published: Jul. 21, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Bringing another very good two-way FW to replace Tanev. Danault is not physical as Tanev, but he would also bring a lot of energy, versatility and boost to our PK. Besides, he'd improve a lot our faceoffs stats.

I'd like the idea to try to bring Bunting as well. He impressed many people, besides his just 21 games, scoring 10 goals for a team like Arizona. I think 1.5M will be enough, cause he played just 26 games at NHL level and he's already 25. So, there's no guarantees in his upside.

As for Gaudreau, he gaves me a good impression, specially in final regular season games and playoffs. He deserves another shot in Pens for the right price, if he want to, of course.

You forgot Danault decline 5X6 so your contract is extremely unrealistic and everything under 5.5X6 is unrealistic

Try more like 5 x $5,500,000 for Danault or possibly higher.

Not as bad as seems when Pens signed him. He was a pretty important part of our team. If you ask to another Pens fans, you'll see that's a lot of them which is mourning his leaving. I'd prefer to lose Pettersson or Zucker.

Well, if any team gives him that much, it will be a TERRIBLE contract. He's not that good at all. He doesn't bring that much offensively to be paid like that. To me, he doesn't worth more than 3.5M. 4M, if the team have much cap space.

Not interested to bring him for that much. He doesn't worth it. Not to me. If any team pay him that much, as I just said, it'll be a terrible contract. He's not that good offensively.

Everyone is telling me it. But it'd be stupid to pay him what he's asking for. If he insists to ask for more than 4M, then Pens should pass him.

Everyone knows Danault will be overpaid
He is THAT good defensively, but because of is lack of offensive talent he will not be worth is contract
But you can’t sign player to what you think they are worth
Too easy, trade Crosby vs McDavid because you think Crosby is better … even if it’s not true and McDavid have way more value than Sid

He'll just get more than 4M if one team are stupid enough to pay him that much. The player and his agent can ask whatever they want to, if there's no team willing to pay, he'll have to sign for less. But, I won't be surprise if some stupid GM overpay him and pay 5M or even more. We've seen this every single season. We'll see...

I raise his salary to 3.75M. That's the higher price that I think Pens should offer to him. As I said, no team should pay him more than 4M. Specially because of the lack of his production in playoffs. But it's probable that you guys are right and one team will overpay him.

Ok I think you really don’t get it
Danault wants to stay in MTL
Bergevin offered him 7 years 4M AAV
Or
6 years 5M AAV
Danault side took those deals as a joke and someone else will pay more than that
So the offer of 5M have already been declined
So you need to start at 5.5M for 6 years minimum
Otherwise don’t sign him and let someone else overpay

Danault will make 5.5 or more per year. If we do not move Zucker or Pettersson we are in trouble

I get it. It makes sense. So, if he really want to stay in Montreal, so be it and let's move on. Pens will have to find another alternative to Tanev. It won't be easy. That's for sure. A player that I like so much is Blake Coleman. But I think he'll be one of those which will be overpayment. He'll probably get something about 4.5M, 5M for about 5 years. I don't want him for such bad contract. I think the GMs should be smarter, specially in flat cap situation and be more cautious offering contracts. Then, we'll have much less overpayments in FA. Almost everyone talked about Brandon Tanev's contract. But I think we'll see contracts much worse than his in this FA. Especially because of Seattle.

Yeah, I just saw it. Goodrow is a good player. But this contract is terrible. Specially the term. But Rangers probably did it, because they intend to trade a player like Buchnevich, Strome and/or Chytil to bring Eichel. That's what I think.
