Latest On Johnny Gaudreau (prohockeyrumors.com)

With less than 12 hours remaining before they lose the ability to offer an eight-year deal, the Calgary Flames are putting forward their best offer for ...

The team currently sits with more than $26MM in room, though that doesn’t factor in extensions for Matthew Tkachuk, Andrew Mangiapane, and Oliver Kylington, who are all restricted free agents. Total money isn’t always the deciding factor though, especially not for NHL players (or at least their agents) who can see the salary cap rising significantly in a few years. That number would put him fifth in the entire league, behind only Connor McDavid, Artemi Panarin, Auston Matthews, and Erik Karlsson in terms of cap hit.

New Jersey Devils: Two Big Free Agent Questions Regarding ... (Pucks and Pitchforks)

The New Jersey Devils already made moves like selecting Simon Nemec in the 2022 NHL Draft and getting goalie Vitek Vanecek via trade. But now comes the most ...

Let’s say the Flyers or Islanders do get Gaudreau. What do the Devils do now? Finally, the other big move the Devils can make is not a free agent. I believe that the Devils will push their most vigorous efforts to make sure their rivals don’t sign him. The Flyers are the other team that wants to sign Johnny Gaudreau. They will fight hard to do so as well. For the Devils, this would be the perfect opportunity to get a potential left-wing to add to a franchise that desperately needs it. However, there is one player the Devils must consider once FA opens.

Gaudreau : plus de 10 M$ US annuellement? (RDS)

Les Flames de Calgary auraient offert à Johnny Gaudreau un contrat de 8 ans qui rapporterait plus de 10 millions $ US annuellement à l'attaquant.

Zadorov a inscrit 4 buts et récolté 18 passes en 74 matchs la saison dernière, alors que Gudbranson a marqué 6 buts et obtenu 11 aides en 78 rencontres.

Flames reportedly put "massive offer" on the table for Gaudreau ... (Daily Hive)

The Calgary Flames and GM Brad Treliving have reportedly tabled a "massive offer" to pending unrestricted free agent Johnny Gaudreau.

He’s earned this opportunity, if he doesn’t sign with us, to look at the market in however long it is. I think he wants to be in Calgary. But they’re big decisions. I think it’s real genuine on both sides that we’re working to try to get a deal done.” They’ve put an offer on the table that would not only make Johnny Gaudreau the richest player in Calgary Flames history but on top of that one of the select few highest-paid players in the NHL today.” But I genuinely think everybody’s heart is in the right place. “I think both sides are focused on trying to get a deal,” Treliving told media on Friday. “These things take time.

But he noted that the Flames have been “ready, willing, able and prepared” to make Gaudreau a well-paid player if he decided to finish his career in Calgary. They’ve put an offer on the table that would not only make Johnny Gaudreau the richest player in Calgary Flames history, but on top of that one of the select few highest-paid players in the NHL today. Of course, Gaudreau’s negotiations with the Calgary Flames came up.

NHL Rumour Roundup: Where things stand with Gaudreau, Kadri ... (Sportsnet.ca)

"I’m told that the interest in Nazem Kadri is going to be significant — there’s a whole number of teams that have been watching Kadri, see his production, his season, and really just what he showed in the playoffs. re-upped with Minnesota. "And whatever reporting was out there that Marc-Andre Fleury had no interest in playing in Toronto, or had nixed the idea of it last spring during the trade deadline, I think that was always overblown. "I think the plan is to try and take the money that Ryan Strome was earning, to slide that over to Nazem Kadri and have him slot in as the New York Rangers’ 2C, in an ideal world for the next seven years. The 34-year-old is coming off a four-year deal that paid him $4 million per year. They’re certainly on the list of teams — maybe four or five teams — that are going to be trying to do everything they can to get Kadri." Seravalli suggested 25-year-old goaltender Ilya Samsonov — who wasn't given a qualifying offer by the Washington Capitals — as a potential target to fill out Toronto's tandem, but such a move would likely require Toronto clearing some cap space, perhaps by dealing defender Justin Holl. "That has to be a realistic option on the table.” When the clock hits midnight on Tuesday night, Gaudreau will lose the ability to sign an eight-year deal with Calgary, meaning from that point on, the max option for him — whether in Calgary or anywhere else — will be a seven-year contract. Regardless of which way Gaudreau's decision falls, the ramifications in Calgary and beyond are bound to be significant. Asked what the cap number will likely be for the highly sought-after centreman's next deal, Seravalli said he believes Kadri will get at least $8 million per year. “If you’re Matthew Tkachuk and you see Johnny Gaudreau walk, someone that you’ve had not only so much individual success with, but also you know that your team’s not going to be quite as good now, and you’re one year away from unrestricted free agency, do you essentially try to wedge your way out or force your way out?" So, that’s been the wrestle in Johnny Gaudreau’s mind and gut for the last few weeks."

NHL Free Agents Scouting Report and Update: Johnny Gaudreau (Puck Prose)

If a long-term contract is coming between the Calgary Flames and Johnny Gaudreau, the window is closing. The Flames have until Wednesday to make a decision.

Johnny will be 29 in August and a long-term contract could really lock up what could be the bulk of his prime as an NHL athlete. While fans of Johnny Gaudreau have felt mostly in the dark this offseason, some clarity should be found this week. It’s much easier to keep things between the player and management when they are not media-facing like they are for the majority of the year. On the player side of it, Johnny Gaudreau has been quiet and carrying on with his regular offseason duties. If a long-term contract is coming between the Calgary Flames and Johnny Gaudreau, the window is closing. At the 2022 draft, Matthew Tkachuk and Johnny Gaudreau were large topics of conversation as possible trading pieces for draft picks.

A person with knowledge of the decision said Malkin has opted to hit the free agent market and see what his options are. Dougie Hamilton’s $63 million, seven-year deal signed a year ago with the New Jersey Devils is a good comparison. In the same breath, Hextall said talks with Malkin were on a different level — further away from a sure thing. Kuemper was solid, not spectacular, in backstopping the Avalanche to the title with a 2.57 goals-against average and .902 save percentage, though that stability could be what another high-scoring contender needs. The big question now is whether Malkin will, at 36 years old, stay with the Pittsburgh Penguins or bolt for a new opportunity. Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and the Edmonton Oilers would be able to provide that, and Campbell is an upgrade over boom-or-bust 40-year-old Mike Smith.

Calgary Flames: Free Agent Replacements for Johnny Gaudreau (The Hockey Writers)

With Johnny Gaudreau likely testing free agency, here are some players the Calgary Flames may look to replace him with.

He has had plenty of time now to ponder his decision, and the fact he has not yet signed a deal with the only team who could offer him an eight-year deal is pretty telling. He’s been a very active and reliable source for nearly two years at The Hockey Writers. He is a credentialed writer for the Calgary Flames but also does features on other teams throughout the league. Not only can he be counted on for 50-plus points in a full 82-game season, but he is also fantastic in his own end of the ice. On top of his great offensive abilities, Perron also has some similarities to Matthew Tkachuk in that he is able to agitate his opponents each and every shift. At just 25 years old, there is still a chance he turns into the player many believed he would be back on his draft day, making the risk/reward very worth it for any interested team. While some of the onus certainly falls on himself, he hasn’t been given a ton of opportunity to prove what he can do. One thing Treliving needs to be careful about in regards to Kadri is that he doesn’t pay him the $10 million that some believe he may get on the open market. That said, if they are able to get the dollar amount somewhere closer to the $8 million range, he is very much a player worth considering. There is some risk here due to his previous off-ice history, but on ice he is undoubtedly one of the game’s best power forwards. At this point, however, he will likely be interested in cashing in after not only winning a Cup but also coming off of a bargain contract, meaning he may very well consider any team willing to pay him top dollar. After a very turbulent start to the 2021-22 season, which began in the American Hockey League with the San Jose Barracuda, Evander Kane latched on with the Edmonton Oilers in January and had a half season to remember. That said, many would quickly change their tune if Treliving were to sign the talented left winger, one who is more than capable of scoring north of 30 goals while also being a very physical presence.
