Player Discussion Jakub Jerabek

[Sterling Archer]

Would give him a 2 year contract at 1.5M a year.

I think he’s showing he’s serviceable and capable of being an NHL defencman. He’s still relatively young, mobile and showing some offensive upside now that he’s getting more comfortable. Seeing as we’re relatively weak on the left, with Mete being the only solid LD prospect we have, I don’t think that’s unreasonable. That being said, I can see him signing for less than that, closer to the million dollar range. Bergevin seems pretty good at getting those deals done.

He's at 925K now. It's a two way deal. So a one way deal at 1.15M-1.25M may satisfy Jerabek. And I would go for a 3-year deal.

Agree completely.

One of the few D-man that don't make me want to cry.

We'll see how he finishes the year, but he's starting to heat up production wise. I think he'll be getting north of 2+ million easily if he finishes the year strong.

He's getting better every game, learning how to play on NA ice and NHL is not easy. He's showing good signs and actually jumps into the play offensively and tries to create things instead of just long dump-in passes or zone exits off the boards. Really liking him thus far, his improvement shows

Re-sign please

Jerabek has been playing north of 18 minutes a game since Dec 30th.
He's looking more comfortable as he plays more.
I want to see him on the PP more instead of Schlemko.

 

[Habs76]

Never a good thing when one of your team's top defensemen has four points in 20 games.

I think if we offer him a one way deal north of 1 millions for 2 years he'll accept it. The hardest part about being a NHLer is to get your foot in the door. Once it's done you can ride for a couple of years based on reputation of being an NHLer. A two years one way deal would do that for him. Taking a chance this summer could end up with him having to return in europe.

seems insane to be giving Schlemko ice time on the PP right now but I imagine they'll look to trade him anyway as we get close to the deadline

Why would we trade a solid top 4 like Schlemko?

 

[boompuffboom]

yeah i like him as well. He's never had a BRUTAL game, unlike Alzner, Petry, Schlemko, Benn...

 

[montreal]

Saw that Pierre Lebrun said during the 1st intermission last night that the Habs haven't had talks yet with his agent but that he thinks he will be back (assuming he wants to be back) Will be interesting to see what kind of deal he gets.

You jinxed it.


That said i would still re-sign him
