Lightning can get away with much lower contracts though due to taxes. Point @ $9M would probably take home more than Marner.
Even if that is the case, sounds like they were already far apart.
Hating the Rangers schedule already. Only three pre season games played so far and then 3 in the first 15 days of regular season.... so lame.
3 the first 15 days? wtf?
If Point wants to get paid like Marner they're better off letting him go. Kucherov is the highest paid on the team @ $9.5M and he (Point) doesn't deserve that. He needs to be more in the $7-8M range.
