If the NHL scuttlebutt is accurate, new GM Pat Verbeek won’t agree to the sort of extensions former GM Bob Murray gave Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry
NEW YORK — When he was the general manager of a Stanley Cup contender, Bob Murray began locking up key players with expensive, long-term contract extensions in order to increase the chances of a second championship in less than a decade, starting with Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf in 2013.
It’s believed that Verbeek’s priority is re-signing Lindholm. He mentioned his name – and only his name – during a talk with season-ticket holders Saturday. Manson has a 12-team no-trade list as part of his current contract, which could complicate matters if a new deal cannot be reached. The good times ended with a thud with a first-round playoff sweep at the hands of the San Jose Sharks in 2017-18, and with a dramatic fall-off in production from Getzlaf, Perry and Kesler. Fowler and Gibson have continued their standout play well into their contracts, however.
Getzlaf, 36, was the Ducks’ fourth-leading scorer with 31 points, including a team-leading 28 assists, in 47 games this season. He signed a one-season, $3-million contract last summer to play a 17th season with the Ducks, and he’s eligible to become an unrestricted free agent.
