GM Low-Balls Star Player With Embarrassing Contract Extension
As trade talks swirl around Pittsburgh Penguins' Jake Guentzel, his potential departure is a subject of intense speculation in the NHL.
Despite interest from various teams, the Vancouver Canucks may be out of the running after acquiring Elias Lindholm. Interestingly, it's revealed that the Penguins made a substantial contract offer to Guentzel, proposing a six-year deal at $8.5 million per season.
However, it was declined, hinting at the player's anticipation of a potentially higher payday in the open market come July 1st.
Guentzel's consistent goal-scoring record makes him a coveted asset, raising questions about his future earnings.
