Beats out Carlsson's 18M, which it should.

Does this spell the end for Logan Couture in SJ? UFA after this season.

I was kind of hoping that Bedard taking $15M would pull the market back a little bit. As of now I don't think there has ever been a Stanley Cup Champion with a player making over $10M in the year they won. That will probably end soon and $15M will likely be the next mark.

I'm already sick of hearing about this guy. Maybe the most over hyped player in the history of the NHL.
Apparently he is now talking about how he "left money on the table" for SJ.
Am I the only one who knows that he hasn't played a single game in the playoffs yet? He's "the next one" because of once nice regular season? Sure.

I think he's top tier elite, borderline generational type of player. 115 points on such a crap team is nuts. That team was going for 1st OA again without him.
He's like the forward version of Makar. Just has infinite energy and is just skating at the puck all night every night, with good skills to compliment. Not quite McDavid tier stick handling and vision, but the infinite gas he has in the tank and refusal to quit lets him just keep getting into the middle of every situation.
