Leo Carlsson Accepts Massive Philadelphia Offer Sheet. Will Anaheim Match The Offer Sheet Or Take Four 1st Round Draft Picks From Philadelphia By Not Matching?

Anaheim Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek has said that he will match any offer sheet that comes the way of Leo Carlsson. Leo Carlsson has accepted a massive 5-year, $90 million offer sheet from the Philadelphia Flyers and Anaheim now has seven days to match the offer. If Anaheim chooses not to match the offer, they will receive four consecutive 1st round draft picks from the Flyers. With an AAV of $18 million that would make Carlsson the highest paid player in the NHL, there's a good chance that Anaheim chooses to not spend that type of money on one player and they may very well take the draft picks.
