Mirtle in the cesspool says Franson was asking for 6 years and 6 million per season. No wonder he's still looking for work.

Im surprised Benning hasnt given it to him

Mirtle suggested the Oilers were interested (and they still may be), however they got Sekera at 5.5 mil per season and told Franson to try the lottery.

Can't say I blame Franson. You get traded for a first rounder, you can easily be fooled into thinking you are worth a first rounder.

And their contract.

Yeah, the Cups helped Saads negotiations big time...but man, it's just a ton of money for a young guy. Suppose I may just need to get used to these kind of things now, becoming more prominent.

What concerns me about Saad's deal is Strome will be a RFA at the end of next season. He put up over 50 points last year & is poised to have an even better season this year. Heck, the Isles haven't signed Brock Nelson yet. YIKES!!

It's a good thing the Isles are so high on their draft picks like Ho Sang, Dal Colle and Barzal because they're going to need those guys when they can't afford to keep Okposo Nelson Strome and De Haan.

Yes, has there been any news as of late on Okposo? Seems like he was a name to watch to be traded this off-season
