[The Mars Volchenkov]

Hell yeah. Glad they didn't mess around with a bridge here.

 

[Avs_19]

Yes!

Don't even care what the cap hit is. I love it.

 

[MonsterMack]

Oh **** yeah

 

[henchman21]

Very happy with this! Don't even care about the amount, it will be reasonable.

Now to dig up the quotes from a few weeks ago.

Defintely goes against the narrative some people try to shove down our throats.

Just when I was bickering about the Avs not locking him up long term...

Welcome to the MacK-cap era

 

[StayAtHomeAv]

don't even care about cap

 

[henchman21]

Adding my guess from the other thread:

So now I need to guess on 7 years... 6.75m.

Defintely goes against the narrative some people try to shove down our throats.

But the Avs don't sign their stars!!!!!

 

[LieutenantDangle]

[Avs_19]

Friedman says $6.3M/yr. Perfect.

 

[Duck Off]

[Foppa]

Omg best move of the off-season!!

 

[henchman21]

Love it and lower than I expected.

Beeeaaatifuuuuuuulllllllllll!

 

[Avs_19]

Gotta get the other guy signed too, man.

 

[Flanagan]

There it is!

The Avs have been #restructured

 

[LieutenantDangle]

dear diary,


JACKPOT!!

 

[cgf]

I was sure he'd be well over 6.5 and let us move the salary structure up enough to hit Barrie's range. At 6.3; the new MacK-cap could mean Tyson's been priced out of colorado.

 

[tigervixxxen]

What a nice surprise. Great deal!!

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

RIP Duchene Cap
