Not the signing I was hoping for today but I'll take it. Good to have one out of the way. Just three more to go.......

 

[AslanRH]

1.75m AAV?

 

[RockLobster]

Would hope it's up to 1.25M AAV which is still a nice, healthy, raise for him...as well as making him one of the nicely paid back-ups in the league.

 

[Foppa2118]

Nice.

Timing is odd though, given what seems to be a hung up trade in the works. Makes me want to break out the tinfoil hat for Varly.

 

[AvsRobin]

I'm gonna guess 1.5M but hope it's less.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Sweet!

Really interested to see this AAV. Gotta think it's lower than Berra. I can look it up but how many RFA years left after this? One?

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Yea, getting deals done and doing things!

Is that amount confirmed or speculation? I was thinking between $1M-$1.25M AAV was his likely number. Probably a similar contract for Grigs as well, though maybe slightly less money.

1.25m sounds about right. Best news, he will still be a RFA at the end.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Nice.

If I have my hat on I'd say deadline to file for arbitration had something to do with the timing.

Wow only $975,000 next year and $1.075M next.

 

[Avs_19]

Perfect.

Wow that is cheap.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Damn good! Glad for some good news!

 

[Former Ladder]

That's $1.025M AAV for the folks playing along at home.

 

[Murzu]

Calvin Pickard will make $975,000 this season, $1.075 million the next

Per Dater.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Three more to go.

 

[Murzu]

Wow you guys are fast.

Excellent deal, brilliant!

I was hoping for that 5 year Boom deal.

 

[AvsRobin]

Just above 1M, good.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

That's a super cheap contract.

 

[Foppa2118]

Perfect.

Very nice. Sets them up well in case they need to go with Picks and a more expensive vet in 2017-18.

 

[AvalancheFan19]

Great deal. I want three more great ones.

 

[henchman21]

Wow that is cheap.

RFA backups don't really make much.
