Welcome to today's news and rumors rundown

We start in Vancouver with some speculation on what Brock Besser's next contract could
0:09
look like. According to Patrick Johnson of the province, it could fall in the realm of players like
0:12
Troy Terry, Matt Boldy, Anders Lee, and Gabriel Landeskog who all earn around $7 million annually
0:17
If he puts up another 40 goal season, that number could be closer to $9 million on a
0:21
7 or 8 year deal, especially if he hits free agency. Next we have even more on Patrick Lani and yet another team that's not seriously looking
0:28
at trading for him. According to Sammy Silber of the Hockey News, salary cap concerns are the main reason why
0:34
they would steer clear, especially if they can't put TJ Oshie on LTIR
0:37
And we finish in Detroit with the latest on Raymond and Sider's next contracts
0:41
While there have been no updates, head coach Derek Lalonde isn't worried, saying that this
0:45
is the normal part of the process with RFAs. He has been in constant communication with the duo, but their discussions have been about
0:51
progress and team building rather than contract negotiations. That's it for this edition of the news and rumors rundown
