The Josh Anderson Thread

[LetsGOJackets!!]

No one in Jacket land is a bigger fan of Josh Anderson than I am, and I gotta tell ya's, send the guy to Europe. I'm sick and tired of the fricking whining and what about me that I see from certain players. Hockey is a team game, get your ass on the plane or stop threatening and actually go to Europe. You will never get this year back.

Tell me it's true.
3 years?

Tell me it's true.
3 years?

It could be about as true as the trade request at this point...

Good thing if true. Drop the puck.

That went just about as expected. Hopefully he is ready to go for the season.

 

[mikeyp24]

No hard feelings. Just wish he could have got here sooner.

 

[Maylo]

That went just about as expected. Hopefully he is ready to go for the season.

Right with Tobias Rieder timeline, leaked trade request on Sept28, signed on October 3.

I gotta think that this deal had been out there for a while already. Hopefully Andy's head is right and he comes in ready to make the FO pay big time on his next contract. That is a very club friendly rate for his production.

Josh Anderson has agreed to a 3yr deal at 1.85 per year . Hope torts skates him into the ground for this unnecessary Bs

 

[mikeyp24]

It is a business at the end of the day and he tried to leverage as much as he could as soon as he could and it didn't work out but at the end of the day he missed no games. As long as he has a great attitude and he doesn't take his early season minutes being slowly given to him and more given to guys here the while time then every thing will be fine. Torts knows it's just business and so does GMJK and as long as Josh feels the same we are on our way to 95+pts again

Okay, now you're just being petty.

 

[Jackets Woodchuck]

Anyone else think he expected to take this deal all along but waited to sign until now so he could skip training camp?

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Bluff called.

Hope not, but...

Yup...this agent is a hack. I hope young, up and coming players needing an agent take notice.

No.

[blahblah]

Good to have him signed. Hopefully he can come in and get going quickly.

 

[NotWendell]

Okay, now you're just being petty.

As long as he's not being TOM Petty

 

[We Want Ten]

As long as he's not being TOM Petty

Boo.

 

[Nanabijou]

As long as he's not being TOM Petty

Go sit in the corner of shame until we tell you to come out. Too soon...

[CBJWerenski8]

So he held out and then took the same deal? If you're going to hold out, might as well go the distance to try to get what you want.

Glad he's back in the fold though. We need him.

 

[Jaxs]

Best news all day. (Yestetday).

 

[TaketheCannoli]

Anyone else think he expected to take this deal all along but waited to sign until now so he could skip training camp?

I doubt it. It doesn't fit the way he has gone about his job in the past.

 

[EspenK]

Glad he signed but now its put up or shut time. He needs to get to 25-25 or so in the next 3 years to earnhis next deal.
