Analyst drops a BOMB about Cole Caufield's next contract

According to Martin McGuire of 98.5 Sports, the Caufield clan and the Montreal Canadiens have officially begun negotiations for a new contract extension.

According to McGuire's source, the two parties have not set a timeline for reaching an agreement.

Arpon Basu and Marc-Antoine Godin of The Athletic have established a comparable in Caufield and it's Dallas Stars star Jason Robertson.

2 contracts options:

1- A contract similar to Jason Robertson's, a contract worth $7.75M annually and lasting four seasons.

2- A contract similar to Jack Hughes' (and the one Hintz just signed), a contract worth $8-8.5M annually and lasting eight seasons.

It'll be interesting to see which option Cole decides to choose.
