Good to see! The extra 250k from last year isn't great, but he fits like a glove here.

 

[MaKarter]

 

[Balthazar]

Everything we've heard was that he's a big guy in the room.

Happy with that.

 

[missionAvs]

I like it. Cogs was a big piece for us.

 

[Ararana]

Was hoping they'd bring him back. Love it.

Even gave the dude a little raise.

 

[Shane Diesel]

Fire Sakic.

Fire Sakic.

The first sign Joe is trying to tank for Bedard. Next is Jake Allen 1x2mill

 

[RampoSanta]

Love it. Helm with LOC was a killer 4th line

 

[Perratrooper]

About $500K more than I would want to pay a 4th liner, but Cogs was a great fit and I’m glad they brought him back. He was an absolute warrior.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

Very nice, he was a motivating voice in the locker room and a warrior on the ice. He earned his raise. Sakic treating his vets good.

Cup tax. I think people should expect that, especially for bottom 6ers.

Like JJ likely isn't going to re-sign under 1M.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

I'm not gonna fuss about 500k.

 

[EdAVSfan]

Hes pretty much an ideal 4th line guy.
He kills penalties, skates fast, loved in the locker room and an absolute iron man.

 

[MaKarter]

Seems like Sakic over paid by about 250K for what has been reported as invaluable locker room leadership.

It seems invaluable leadership costs 250K Welcome back Cogs let's do it again.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Happy to have Cogs back, little disappointed in the raise, but still happy he's back. Our 4th line was absolutely phenomenal in the playoffs.


I think Cogs is a good mentor for LOC as well.

That 250K is the bonus he got for the pre game speech in Game 6.

Good signing by Sakic.

Cogliano is a gamer and never takes a shift off. He helped Colorado's PK out a lot after his arrival (83.7% w/Cogliano; previously was at 78.7%).

 

[LTC Pain]

Awesome sauce!

 

[LOFIN]

I'm not gonna fuss about 500k.

Especially for a 1 year deal

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

No issue with the modest raise. He’s worth that contract. Plays as the high man on the PK, plays great defence, forechecks well, adds toughness/leadership.

Just not a lot of offence, but everything else is there. Glad he’s coming back.

 

[BrickNHL]

It’s $250k lmao. Who gives a f***
