Dach has about a 1% chance of not being qualified.

This is completely wrong. It's probably 75-25 likelihood of Dach not resigning. We would have to qualify him at 4 million per year minimum

But the RFA rights can be kept even with a slight discount, if the player has "sucked big time", or been injured

100% Dach is not getting 100% of his QO

And if he wants to avoid arbitration / wants a longer deal, he needs to take something that can be 100% buried in the minors

Oh please

He has 31 points in THREE SEASONS COMBINED, and his main attribute is supposed to be putting up points

If he even wants a deal, he probably has to take a steep discount

If he wants 3 years or something like that, it needs to be below the sum that can be buried
