Confirmed with Link: Foligno Extension - 3.1 Million AAV

[Ban Hammered]

Tired of people regurgitating the bullshit that Russo writes as fact. Foligno is a quality 4th line player who is very good on the PK. He isn't some great leader, voice of the team, protector of teammates.

Here we go again...

 

[DeagleJenkins]

3 years ago. And he turtled

That’s fine. He still did it which you claim he doesn’t. Video evidence. Are we gonna adjust it to he just doesn’t do it enough to fit your argument?

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

$23.7M in space this summer right now.

Add $2.1M (Greenway/ED) and $2.7M (Rask buyout).

Subtract $3M (Rossi, Boldy and Menell/Addison ELC's).

Fiala ~$7.5M
Kaprizov ~$6.5M
Eriksson Ek ~$3.5M

$8M to fill the X's below (probably closer to $6M to keep a little cushion) with Dumba's $6M continuing to be a wildcard.

Boldy - Rossi - Zuccarello
Parise - Eriksson Ek - Foligno

I can probably find a video of Suter dropping a bomb of a slapshot within the last 3 years. Will that prove that he's a huge threat from the point?

and coming down the pipe is Johnson and Samoskevich

 

[Spurgeon]

Seems a bit too much, but he is an important piece of a shutdown line and is probably our best PK guy. He also doesn’t have any protection, so he can still be traded/exposed.

Not sure what the plan is for the wingers the next two years though. Where does Boldy slot in? Is Parise going to be on the 4th line?

Top 6: Fiala, Kap, Zucc, Boldy(?)
Bottom 6: Parise, Foligno, Greenway*, Hartman

Where'd you drop Zuccarello off at?

Oh yeah, he’s still there. My subconscious just seems to like this better

My guess is it's Fiala/Kaprizov/Parise and Zuccarello for this year and next year, then Boldy bumps Parise out the next year.

Shoulda refreshed before I posted because this is probably what I see happening. Would love to find a way to get Nuge in the Top 6, but definitely won’t have the cap with Dumba still around.

The FA market is very weak for Top 6 centers. I suppose Krejci wouldn’t be a terrible short-term solution.

Danault is a good 2C, and actually a center. I’d wait to see what Barkov’s situation develops into before I do anything, though.

If he has another solid season, I’d be interested in him. Does seem like he’d be a great 2C, but I’m not sure Montreal lets him hit UFA. I don’t think this team has any shot at affording Barkov.

I’m not claiming suter never did it now am I?

When did I use the word "never"?

 

[DeagleJenkins]

When did I use the word "never"?

right ill word it as you did then, im not the one asking for you to show me the times suter has made a clap bomb. sure sounds like saying he never does it with different wording but to your credit you did not say never.

 

[P10p]

Foligno just beat the brakes off MacEwen for taking runs this year.

Do you not watch Wild games or....?

 

[Lapa]

Eh, okay deal. In a non-COVID world I would have called it a good deal.

 

[TaLoN]

My opinion? Meh... could've done better in the current market.

 

[nickschultzfan]

Contract is high, but this is probably because Greenway will leave by trade or expansion draft.

 

[HotDish]

I feel like we have a few good LWs coming down the pipeline. IDK why you'd want to extend a bottom 6 one that will take up a spot. 3 years for a guy that plays a position that many would take league min for?

I thought I saw Foligno move to the right?

Also, there is a significant difference between a guy that would take league min for vs a guy like Foligno. I mean, Kurtis Gabriel would take minimum for and a lot of fans in this thread think Foligno = Gabriel as all bottom 6 forwards are the same right?

 

[AKL]

The bigger problem here is the idea that Guerin seems to think having cap space means he can overpay, however slightly, certain guys. Which in a one off situation is maybe fine, but when you're slightly overpaying everyone, suddenly you have an extra 5-10M tied up where it shouldn't necessarily be tied up.

The fact that he had 15M in cap space and chose to spend it all on third liners too is a little worrisome.

 

[Minnewildsota]

Show me the times that Foligno has stood up for his teammates

Do your own damn research.
“Prove me..”
“Give me..”
“Show me..”

Our time is just as valuable as yours
