All Adam Gold said is there is no agreement in place. And that should be obvious to anyone at this point. 
I have no personal opinion about any of these people. But Adam Gold is the only one who came out with an absolute fact. say what you will.

Can’t there be an agreement in place that only the player and team know about? Got no skin in this game but it’s not a fact because Gold says it is

Yes, and I believe the Canes have given Tarasenko their final offer and he's choosing between the Canes and Ottawa.  Ottawa's offer might be the one that is in flux.

Orlov is the difference, trust me on this one. He could still go with Ottawa, but they have to clear up DeBrincats, first, which is also adding to the delay. I still think Orlov here makes the difference, even if it is a 2 year deal going for the cup.

I do not envy Ottawa’s situation. You have a guy who wants a contract similar to Timo Meier and neither you or any other team in the league want to give him that contract. So what are your options, 1) basically give him away on the trade market or 2) let him play out his $9M QO this year but see all your cap space go down the drain.

Fun times in Ottawa.

Clearly he hasn’t signed but that doesn’t mean they don’t have an agreement in principle. The athletic don’t post poo for fun.

Yepper’s lol.

I amusingly await a post here saying “See? I told you Shayna was right!” haha

A real confirmation I will gladly accept, but sorry guys Shayna didn’t give a confirmation, she just gave her opinion that “it looks like” and I accepted it as such.

Yep, nailed Ottawa's dilemma.  They don't want to pay DeBrincat that QO of $9M or anything close to that and neither do the other 31 NHL teams.  I mean maybe Arizona or Chicago can swing it, but it almost seems like Ottawa would also need to sweeten the deal just to get him off their books.  Not an enviable position at all!

I choose to believe Shayna cause it makes me happy to think we are getting Tank just I like I choose to believe that I’m winning the lottery every time I pick up a power ball ticket. I still haven’t won power ball yet but we’ll see what happens lol.

Can’t argue with your personal choices haha. Will be fun to see what happens.

I agree with the Ottawa discussions, and their needing to offload deBrinkat if they want Tarasenko. That’s why I’m more inclined to believe his agent is trying to squeeze everything out of the Canes he can.

Don’t rely on my comments though I get all my rumors from Booger Thompson and he’s on a beer drinking binge again.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
