Carlsson's offersheet is structured so he gets 39M of it in the first 12 months, wowzers
Quite a derailment of the lovely rebuild the Ducks were having. Maybe Gauthier is about to get an offersheet too!

Per my conversations earlier in the week with sources, the @AnaheimDucks were hoping to be between 10M-12M AAV for Carlsson & Gauthier, knowing Sennecke will be next in line, the @NHLFlyers have now come off the top rope. This also impacts Bedard & Celebrini. #HockeyX

How can this be seen as a president though? Its an offer sheet, which has to be team killing and unreasonably high.
If I am the Ducks, there is no way I match this. 4 1st rounders can be used to get someone else. Yeah, this hurts them, but not near as much as the Blues hurt us.

Definitely is relevant for Bedard, because he is RFA now and can get an offersheet at any moment. I was mistaken bringing up Gauthier on the Ducks. He has the weird situation where he's RFA but not enough years to do arbitration or offer sheets, he needs 1 more season. Carlsson's deal being matched really helps his negotiations though.
But it looks like Mintyukov on the Ducks has already been given an offersheet, that he hasn't yet signed, so could be more fun for the Ducks around the bend already :)
Celebrini just needs to go 1 more season without signing and he probably has multiple teams offering him 20M+ considering Carlsson got 18M.
