Cole Caufield's next contract: Jeff Gorton gives important information
Where would the Habs be without the top three? Nick Suzuki is in the first year of an eight-year contract, Kirby Dach is on a four-year deal, but Cole Caufield will be a free agent at the end of the current campaign.
Signing Caufield is a priority, not only from a fan standpoint, but from an organizational standpoint as well. He has the potential to be the team's leading scorer for quite some time and he is only 21 years old.As a guest on the Sick Podcast with Tony Marinaro, Jeff Gorton gave some inside information about a contract extension for Cole Caufield:
"I would tell listeners not to worry about that, Cole will be here for the next few years." - Jeff Gorton
That is to say, both sides are currently negotiating a contract extension and the Habs staff is very confident that they will reach a deal with number 22. That's enough to reassure fans, who want to continue to see the first trio wreak havoc for a long time.
