What do you think Getzlaf is worth on the open market? What would the Flames offer him? I mean if O'Reilly is worth 6.5M, Getzlaf is worth much more.

pretty tough to build realistic valuations off of that premise.
R0R hit the fucking lottery.

Brother, can you spare a dime?

Saskatchewan Roughriders and receiver Chris Getzlaf have agreed on a three year contract extension. The deal is said to be worth in the neighbourhood of 120-thousand a year.

It depends on the team. There are loopholes to be found in the CBA. I'm sure Wang & Garth will find them all.:L

quite frankly I feel what they did with Tim Thomas was a loophole.

Absolutely. The Flames & Leafs would certainly offer him a similar contract if not more. Of course they could only offer him 7 years.

It was said earlier this season that Perry could get 9M on the open market.

Getzlaf is a pretty good player, but this is essentially Crosby money. Obviously, no hometown discount from Getzlaf.

Why should Getzlaf give a hometown discount? He's one of the top centers in the entire league. He's won a cup. His team is in 2nd place in the Western Conference. Perry won't give a disount either.

Right now it looks like the #1 UFA center on the market will be Mike Ribeiro. He's going to get PAID.

that was before they resolved the lockout and set the cap to drop to 64.3 next season

I dont see it ... I suppose the Flames or Leafs could have made drastic team changes to get rid of contracts to take on Getzlaf though

Hey, good for him for cashing in, but if he had signed on for let's say $7 million per season, I think it would have provided the Ducks with a little more flexibility going forward.

With the new salary cap, I don't think that any team yet knows just where that fine line is between keeping their star players happy & being able to keep their rosters deep enough on the talent charts to be perennial contenders. It will be interesting to see how many teams accidently step over that line in the next few years.

True dat, homie. I'm sure he got most of that upfront, so maybe DB&I will be cheering for him in 2-3 years?

The Leafs will have 20,808,825 in cap space this offseason.

The Flames will have 20,105,051 in cap space this offseason.

The Leafs have a lot more guys to sign than the Flames do though. Bozek, Gunnarson amongst others. The big name for Calgary of course is Iginla.
