Maybe Perry sees that the team is serious and follows suit.

AAV of 8.25 Million.
Perry is gone no question.

Seems steep on an eight year term...I would've thought somewhere in the $7.25M range on a deal that long...yikes.

I'm scared to get too excited about Perry, but he would fit here so perfectly.

He'd fit perfectly just about anywhere.

Shut the Diddle up. Are you serious?

Don't see how they can give him the cash either.

That said, Perry will be getting over 8 mil for sure from whatever team signs him. Sens better pony up if they want any chance at him.

8.25 million X 8 years. That is ridiculous.

Perry would have the highest contract here, Spezza will want that when his time is up. I can't see the Euge throwing out that much.

Bryan Murray will get it done no question because Alfie is gone in a couple years and nobody in the system right now has 1st line money coming in the next 5-6 years

Meh, 8.25 for Perry is fine, then is Spez wants that, it's only a 1.25 million increase for one of the best Cs in the league. You pay.

Perry won't sign for less than 8 mil, that's for sure. But your right, Anderson is locked up at a great salary, Karlsson is as well, Alfi is off the books, Gonchar is off the books, Spezza will probably be offered a retirement contract by the Sens...

Man, I hope they just make the trade for Perry and sign him super long term.

Not if your name is Eugene.

I think Perry will wait til July 5 before he makes up his mind. Doesn't sound like he has a team in mind just that he is going East.

Kovalchuk went back and forth with LA and NJ before deciding on NJ's illegal contract.

So much for salaries keeping in line with the cap. Getzlaf will get more than 1/8th of the cap space next year. I think they still have the per-player limit of no more than 20%, which I always thought was way too high. Always thought 10% would be a nice round number, but 15% probably more what the PA would agree to. Well, $8.25 is nearly 13% of the total. I think those salaries work in the NBA because you don't have a 20-man roster.

Any team that trades for him has the advantage because of the extra year you can offer... pretty big deal.

I guess it depends on whether money is the deciding factor. Does he want maximum $$ or does it matter where he goes and if the team is near Cup contention etc.
