NHL insider Sean Shapiro joined host Gavin Spittle to recap the Memorial Cup championship. The pair reviewed the high level of talent displayed at the tournament, noting that many players involved are prospects for NHL organizations.
With social media rumors circulating about what a Jason Robertson contract could look like, Shapiro explained that while $14 million is a logical opening negotiation position for an agent, the final market value will likely land closer to $12 million or $12.5 million. Shapiro compared the situation to the Mikko Rantanen deal and expects a resolution with the Stars within 26 days.
Shapiro and Spittle also went through fan-suggested trades, discussed Nashville speaking to Colorado General Manager Chris MacFarland, and praised the Stars' management pipeline.
