steviewonder20 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 ‘Nikita Zadorov, defense Zadorov is the type of player that is just waiting to get overpaid on the open market. Listed at 6-foot-6 and 248 pounds, he is the type of big physical defender that general managers absolutely love regardless of whether or not they can play. Add in the fact he is coming off a strong postseason showing and general managers are going to let recency bias kick in and overvalue a player that probably isn't anything more than a good No. 5 or 6 defenseman. Let somebody else overpay.’ i wanted him to sign here, but not for over 5 million. This article is a list of UFAs that will get more than they are worth.

I did think that they must have had scouts watching him while they pre-scouted the team .. my thoughts were exactly that . it makes sense . And I’m sure AE would leave enough behind, to get to Zadorov’s numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSam Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 They may have no other choice but to turn around for Zadorov , or be weaker on the D. Again, Myers was signed too soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 500k could have been saved on that regardless.. we could have found someone to replace him after signing Zadorov. like Kulikov , who played well in the Cup Finals . anyways you and I have had this conversation and I’m not going to regurgitate everything all over again ,.

I think Florida has to move Ekblad to keep the other pieces they want to keep The interesting bit will be whether they're able to retain Montour, because as of right now Ekblad the only top 4RD they have under contract 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think fair value with term the number is a bit higher . I’d go 5.4 - 5.8 x 7 or 6 years. Hes 29 ,. The wheels will not fall off him at 36, when he would sign a “friendly contract” for about 3m Honestly, The way he played in the playoffs , is the type of game that’s been repressed from not getting the opportunities he asked for. Always a Role player , just because he’s big .. And a “late bloomer” because of that. Had he come to Vancouver instead of Calgary with this Coaching staff at 25 or 26 yrs , We would have helped bring the best player out of him then. you have to admit , he lit up when they let him loose to play outside the system if he saw an opportunity to swiftly help on the attack. That shot is close to 100 mph , but it’s heavy. Let’s see more !

At 29 he pretty much is what he is and 5 is the cap for a guy like that. we could recoup most of what he brings for less with either Edmunson or Dillon and have money for a top and middle six winger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah… going over 5 for a number 5 defenceman is just nuts. But round in round this conversation goes… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming they got anywhere close to 5, they were being more than fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
