It’s based on either total games played and/or that he played less than 10 games his first year season coming from university. I’ve seen contending comments but that’s the gist I think.

Smart, smart move by the Canucks. You know that was very likely intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AND you want to trade Boeser for him? He's a loyal character from what it seems like. No, no no. Just no. Loyalty goes a LONG way. Name a player that has stuck with the same team after signing an Offer sheet. Yeah, didn't think so. I would trade Boeser for Aho without even thinking twice. I love brock but Aho can control an entire game on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackcanuck Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 This should be an epic opening game! The Canadiens open the 2019-20 season in Carolina on Oct. 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sakic also signed one with the Rangers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NHL_players_who_have_signed_offer_sheets Ohlund only signed it because Quinn was trying to lowball him (different CBA back then) on his first contract. I'll give Quinn the benefit of the doubt (being the best GM the clubs ever had gives you that slack) as I guess ownership directed him to cut costs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestFalcon Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Think the Canes will match, if Montreal really wanted him, probably should have to gone into the next level in which they give up 2 firsts, a second and third. But I guess that would just handcuff them from making any other moves for a week, so they're just hoping the structure of it will be enough to stop Carolina paying. It makes the day a bit more interesting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 You've got to wonder if just the act of a GM trying to poach a player with an offer sheet opens the door to more of this happening going forward. It's been considered taboo for years but there's been more chatter about it the last year in regards to how GM's and teams have to do everything they can to be competitive.

There are few small markets that deserve a team more. Are you saying you would be fine with the Hurricanes letting Aho go for a 1st, 2nd and a 3rd?
