I think Jess would take a 6x6. If Skinner continues his progression and doesn’t regress, I can see a world where he’s Smith’s backup next year. With Jess’ current 1.175 and Koskinen’s 4.5 off the books there isn’t much more required to hit that 6M number.
I’m pretty sure I said it in the summer but Holland should have made it a priority to get Jess extended prior to the season.

You think if he puts up 60+ he'll sign for $6M? I think there is no chance of that. I would love if he did, but can't see it.
One of the reasons I'm really bullish on him because he seems to have "won over" Leon and Connor. It felt like they were looking him off a lot last year, but this year they seem to all look for each other, and I really believe he will challenge 1PPG. And you do not get a 1PPG player for $6M.
In a way I want to say "cross that bridge when you get there", but I think he will be a stud. If there's a way to lock him up now, do it.

I thought it was a straight up miss when the Oilers let it be known early this summer that they weren't interested in discussing an early extension for Puljujarvi. It's possible that the player also didn't want this, but it was notable that the media said that Holland wanted to wait. I don't know why you would put that out at all - I'm not sure it does anything for the team with that player to have you basically declare this a "show-me" year publicly, but also, they had to have a sense where he was going to sit on the depth chart. If he's stapled to McDavid, he'll put up points.
You could argue - and others have in the past with any winger not named Zack Kassian - that the McDavid effect inflates his point totals. That's probably even true. However, I don't think it's all McDavid, and he could put up a number that is significantly higher than previous wingers of 97 have hit. I believe he'll also have arbitration rights, and I don't know that an arbitrator can take in to account who he played with, since that wouldn't show up in the comparables.
Although him filing for arbitration may not be the worst case scenario. Other than Koskinen, the team has no major contracts end next year, so we don't have a lot of cap space available and you would think a big portion of what we do have, should be spend on a goalie. If Puljujarvi gets a $4-5MM raise, that's going to be very challenging to fit in. If Yamamoto also were to have a good season? Then you have to say goodbye to someone, and replace them with dirt cheap help. It's times like this when I question whether it really made sense to spend $9MM on a mediocre 2nd pairing...

I’m in the minority I’m sure, but I don’t see yamo having a great season. Sure, he tries hard.. but I don’t believe the results will be there from him.
