CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Love Palat. Such a good story how to develop a 7th round pick to become a top six forward. Very underrated for what he does, plays on the first unit PP and PK, can play on any line as a scorer, playmaker, checker etc. He is an important piece for the Lightning to get locked up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fateless Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 That's a rather palat-able deal for Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, he's 26 years old... I'd be happy with anything around 5 x 5 AAV for Bo. 6-8 years x 5AAV would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kloubek Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I'm glad we now have this comparable to work with in negotiations with Horvat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams are starting to get smarter with the deals. Except for the Laughs... not sure they'll ever get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Agreed with all above, this definitely helps with Horvat negotiations. Of course, the McDavid deal doesn't help (the idea is out there that players will use the argument they know they're worth less, just not $6M less) but we'll see where we end up. Good deal for the Lightning and Palat shouldbe good value over the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glory_Days Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Much rather have Palat at that deal, then the supposed 6-7 years and $6-7 million per year that Tatar wants, pffft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
