Understandable. Hope he gets paid somewhere else.

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

Yzerman will sign him for 6 years at $7 million, tons of SB/escalating money in two years

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Smart.

 

[LongDongMarcheron]

Let him walk, What a bum

 

[Leafs87]

That’s a fair offer given the circumstances (actually quite generous given the circumstances)

I actually can’t really even think of a team who might go higher that’s a contender. Unless Krugs just following the money

 

[These Are The Days]

Jesus Krug what the HELL is wrong with you? Take that and run!

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Krug home to Detroit Yzerman gives him 7 x $7 mil bank on it.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Jesus Krug what the HELL is wrong with you? Take that and run!

He was undrafted and underpaid his entire career. Aside from a Cup he has won plenty and been a leader on a contender.

I think it is fair for him to chase a big contract now. He is elite at what he does after all... if he decides to come back he is most welcome.

 

[elitepete]

That’s an overpayment

 

[Clayonator]

Nor should they be.

He's an idiot if he chooses Detroit over Boston for just an extra $500,000 a season.

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Keep him out East though so Pittsburgh’s in the lottery

Not sure I agree it's fair considering he gave them a real sweetheart deal before this. Deserves to cash in.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Nor should they be

 

[Hally BlackWood]

Way to much for a small offensive defender, Boston should be able to get him at 4.5 for that term

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

He's an idiot if he chooses Detroit over Boston for just an extra $500,000 a season.

I agree but maybe he wants to be the main D in DET and play top pair (he isn't one) while getting paid

 

[Steddy33]

Lol. 6.5 is too much

 

[Captain97]

Isn't that fair market value for him?

 

[Regal]

Seems like a fair deal by the Bruins and they don't want to blow up your salary structure over a player like Krug. Good for them for setting their limit and not budging. Too many cave in to bad deals.

Also their parents live there IIRC and it's his hometown. Krug to Detroit makes a lot of sense for him.

Well, I’d argue what Boston is offering is a big contract.

 

[82Ninety42011]

He's going home than to Detroit. They have a need and cap space to make it happen.

 

[Coachcorner]

Definitely is sire. He has played on the best powerplay in the league. With the best men available. Almost only scores on the PP, not a strong 5 on 5 player. Only plays average a 16.30 on the even strength. Etc.
He is a powerplay specialist and boston can replace him fast. The world is gone crazy with these. You are right and know ice hockey period

 

[Michoulicious]

He wants that 7th year, and I think he'll get it.

Still Boston has nobody to replace him... OEL, comon down!
