So it does happen periodically, like something doesn't get done properly.
But the fact that that happened last week is up in everyone's mind because the last thing you're going to want is to go past the deadline and find out, hey, you guys did this wrong.
So you're doing it under the new rules.
So I know there's some teams and agents that want to rush and get this done later today, Monday.
So there's a lot of extensions out there and stuff, but the three big ones I think everyone's looking at are Gauthier from Anaheim, Cutter Gauthier, Batherson, Drake Batherson from Ottawa, and Adam Fantilli from Columbus.
Those I think are the three.
And I have heard in the last couple days that,
There is progress on Gautier.
I think that's going to be a huge deal, the biggest of the three.
And just some word I was hearing out of some of the camps and around the league was that there had been some progress made there, that Anaheim's had enough trouble this offseason.
And even though Gautier is not eligible for an offer sheet, it sounds like
they are motivated to get that one done.
And I think that'll be a big, big deal.
The other two, Batherson and Fantilli, I've heard less optimism as we record this.
Again, I always say one phone call can change everything.
And I have believed with Batherson, there is definitely a path.
I believe there's a deal to be made there.
I think
Again, I think the summer we've all seen this, the Carlson, the McCarr deals, everything has changed.
And I think that's thrown a curve ball into a lot of teams, but I heard Batherson was still a challenge.
