Ducks match Flyers' five-year, $90M offer sheet for Leo Carlsson
The Flyers took their shot. But no Leo Carlsson coming to Philadelphia, and the need for a true needle-mover remains. The positive is that it showed how far Briere is willing to go to get that guy. The negative is that it showed how hard it's going to be to actually get him.
mild-and-bitter.bsky.social4The consolation is that Briere shafted the Ducks for the future (hopefully). I wonder how much Cutter will get with a similar season to this past one.
J.S.Humbacher1I don't think Briere did this to stick it to the ducks. It would have been the right move for the Flyers. And the Ducks' best move would have been to take 4 #1 picks and the cap space. Verbeek stuck it to himself, first by not signing Leo. Who is NOT going to be happy in Anaheim.
The Anaheim Ducks after matching Leo Carlsson’s 5 year, $18 million AAV offer sheet from the Flyers
Jean-Philippe Michaud3About $32M or 30% of team cap on the first line, that's a Maple Leafs like structure! They're screwed for the next 2-3 years.
T-Fish🇨🇦🍁3If I walked the Ducks, this is literally a fireable offence. He could have gotten this done last July 1st and probably gotten him at a $12-13 mil contract for 8 years. That’s gonna cost his boss a lot more money cuz he waited him out
Geoff1- Ok so ANH match, do they now target Fantilli? - Larkin adds DAL to list, likely ends up there now - If so, does Warenski change his mind about accepting DAL trade? - All this Robertson to PIT noise had truth to it.. or going back for Larkin to DET? Feels like a few “other shoes” about to drop :)
