Snoop Hogg Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Isn’t Nevada a no tax state too? Jesus. What a deal for him. Doesn’t this put them in cap hell though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Man, I had (a little) sticker shock when VAN were in the process of re-signing Hronek, but at age 26 Id say its a really good deal looking at the Theodore extension. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap doesn't apply to Vegas Most of CFF is part of Vegas's cap, but they're just on LTIR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puts them at about 70M with 7 F, 6 D and 0G signed. Cap will be around 90. So yeah, it's not ideal but they've got their top 6 F and top 3 D locked in. Hague will cost a few million to extend but with him they'll have a pretty full 7 D locked in. If they can sign Holtz and Brisson for cheap, that's a decent top nine forwards. They'll wanna add a decent vet or two to insulate, but beyond that it's just goaltending will be the main expense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coryberg Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 (edited) That number would be great.... on a 4 year deal. Takes him to damn near 38, not gonna age well unless they are planing on LTIRing him. Wait this is vegas, of course they are. Edited October 24 by Coryberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakrami Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Man I thought VGK would have to trade him. But the dude actually takes a discount for the team. Easily 9mil 1D capable playing on both sides on the open market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Why is the coach walking through the change room with a wrench looking for "cap space"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Argh i can't get myself to like this team at all. One day theodore will go on LTIR and the contract will terminate and no cap penalty cause it's Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 I guess that means we offer sheet Hague! Surely they’ll be losing Hague or McNabb this offseason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 15 hours ago, Snoop Hogg said: Isn’t Nevada a no tax state too? Jesus. What a deal for him. Doesn’t this put them in cap hell though? Vegas already paid up by letting a bunch of guys walk after last season (Marchy, Stephenson, Martinez, Carrier, Mantha, Amadio). Plus they got Hertl with 17% retention, so his cap hit is only $6.75M. But they're already up against it again. They'll probably have to let McNabb and Howden walk at the end of the year. And not much left in the prospect pool, and they've already traded their 2025 & 2026 1st rounders. I think their time as a true contender is probably coming to an end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most would trade a cup or 2 for 10 years of irrelevant and sucking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will definitely shed one of them. At 34 soon I can see McNabb re-signing for cheap. I can also see Hague asking for a change of scenery as he was stuck behind Theodore and Martinez early in his career and now he's stuck behind Theodore and Hanafin for the next 7 years. Hague might be a top 4 defenseman but he's never had the opportunity to prove it. I wonder what the asking price would be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
