Kadri believed to be looking long-term (6 yrs in Tavares stratosphere of $5.5M per). Leafs want short, 2 yrs at P.K. Subban $ ($2.875M per).

Tough sledding for NYR/RFA Derek Stepan. Player seeks McDonagh $ (6 x $4.7M) but no arb rights, NYR holding firm on Subban level bridge deal

Dialogue on contracts for RFA D, Alex Pietrangelo in STL and Jared Cowen in OTT, is ongoing. Gaps still to be closed but talks continue.

Petro/STL would like 8 yr max term but question is where between $6M and $7M per yr it settles. Karlsson at $6.5M (x7), Doughty at $7M (x8).

Cowen/OTT exploring short and long term deals, everything from 2 yrs to 8. Nothing imminent. Guessing term more likely shorter than longer.
