NHL Salary Cap Soars: Which Teams Will Make Game-Changing Moves Next?

And I definitely think, since the Kaprizov thing got turned down, and I do think the Wild to some degree, want to see where this goes over the next little bit. And I’m not convinced they’re going to be upping their offer.

But I definitely think that the managers, informally, have talked about, there has to be somewhere here we hold the line for anybody who basically isn’t named (Connor) McDavid or on that level. Not that anybody really is.

I’ll tell you something else I’m more convinced of Kyle. You know, I think there are some players here thinking about, okay, like McDavid is going to get to a stratosphere where he deserves to be, because under the cap, pay him 20% and nobody’s going to complain about it. I believe, I really believe more than ever, and I’ve said a couple of times, but I’ve, I really believe it more than ever, if McDavid signs in Edmonton, if he does, it’s going to be for a lower number than we all expect.
