Too much money, but term is good again. Truculence!!!!!

 

[CraigsList]

I like the signing. Cheaper than Butler, 3 years, can play RW if he has to, and is physical. I think he'll pair up just well with Smid.

 

[Yung Rotini]

Meh.

Whoops, accidentally added AAV to the title.

2.9M is the AAV, according to Bob McKenzie

 

[DCDM]

2.9 a year is ridiculous. Holy crap.

 

[Pirate King Luffy]

Nope I guess I was right.

 

[Yung Rotini]

This is a terrible signing. Engelland has not played like a defenseman that should be making almost 3 million dollars.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Well, **** weird cap. Again term is short so it doesn't matter. This is Carkner 2.0

Why does that matter, its the term that matters.

 

[StreakingRed]

Like the term, don't like the $$$ at all.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

2.9M is the AAV, according to Bob McKenzie

That's gross.

Gotta make the cap floor I guess. #firstworldproblems

 

[Zirakzigil]

Brutal at 2.9. He's a good 6/7 guy or 4th line winger. But that cap hit is brutal.

 

[Pirate King Luffy]

Might've like to keep O'Brien if I knew this ahead of time.

 

[Yung Rotini]

Why does that matter, its the term that matters.

It does matter because it makes him virtually unmovable if you want to trade him.

 

[Anglesmith]

In a related note, Engelland has agreed to give back all of the incriminating photos.

 

[The Gnome]

Then bury him, make him eat popcorn, who the hell cares in the next 3 years?! We got him for nothing and have tons of cap even with his salary.

 

[BRobMint]

$2.9M?!?!?! Ugly

 

[BeauportHarfangs]

Crazy pay raise! Are we sure thats AAV not total for the contract?

 

[Noori]

With Wideman, Smid, and Engelland, it's going to be a damn slow defense.

 

[Yung Rotini]

Crazy pay raise! Are we sure thats AAV not total for the contract?

It's the AAV according to Bob McKenzie

 

[Deen]

Gotta protect Gaudreau and the other kids.

 

[Anglesmith]

Gotta protect Gaudreau and the other kids.

Gotta protect your goalie from getting shelled, though.

 

[BVicious]

I'm not familiar but at this price I prefer we kept Butler.

But he adds size and stuff. Could be a decent pickup
