Paying it forward to Calgary fans. Johnny Hockey should get more, but it'll still be reasonable based on FF9s amount.

Why? Because he plays in Canada? Because he has a nickname?

He doesn't play on the pk. Not nearly the defender Forsberg is.

Forsberg Quadruples hits and blocks, thus is the much more physical player.
and he shoots more than gaudreau.



I can see the argument for JG getting the same money, but I can also see it for a little less.

Pay for the complete player.

Points get dollars. He's a special player, so is Forsberg.

It's great to have people that kill, but you can find 4th line PKers. Points are always going to get precedents in a contract.

Edit: you are the one the always seems to hate Canada in your comments. I'm a Nashville native, I understand the slight, but it's not always the case.

We now know why this deal came out of the blue and I can only imagine that Poile had the Weber deal in the back of his mind in getting FF9 as low as he could. You just do not do Subban for Weber on a whim.
