Frank Seravalli was joined by Colby Cohen to discuss some of the most interesting restricted free agents this offseason on the latest episode of Daily Faceoff Live.
Frank Seravalli: Time for our AskDFO inbox questions, we’re going to throw up the top ten scoring restricted free agents this summer and it is a fascinating class. There are a lot of really good players on here that are going to be due some significant paydays. Who is the most interesting to you in terms of a negotiation factor or in terms of how does all of this work and what does he get paid?
Colby Cohen: This is an easy one for me, number three on the list Alex DeBrincat you probably could have guessed that’s where I would have gone with this. The reason for that being his qualifying offer is close to $10 million. He had a good season, he didn’t have a great season, 27 goals which is a good number but a far cry from the 40-goal pace he was on with Patrick Kane in Chicago over the last couple of seasons.
