Insider Michael Russo says Minnesota's Bill Guerin will agree to any term and salary Quinn Hughes asks for, up to the NHL maximum of $20.8 million a year.
Quinn Hughes says the slow pace of his Minnesota extension talks isn't tied to a desire to join brothers Jack and Luke at New Jersey.
Pierre LeBrun says he's surprised there's been no news on Nikita Kucherov's extension with Tampa Bay, with his agent and GM staying silent as a 16 September CBA deadline looms.
Oilers captain McDavid says he's unsure if US players want to leave Canada or just seek better title chances, citing Edmonton's contracts with Schei and Frederic.
Hughes and Minnesota will meet soon to negotiate a new deal, with the defenceman having one year left at a $7.85 million cap hit.
The 20-year-old defenceman agreed to an eight-year, $75 million deal with Vancouver, worth $9.38 million per season starting in 2027/28.
