$3.67M cap hit. Not the worst deal in the world but maybe I just have been numbed by that Beagle contract.

It's a good deal. Buys enough time to see if he is or isn't part of the future. Buys 1 year of UFA. Figured he'd get $4 million to bridge to UFA.

I am not a huge Baertschi fan, he's ok, but I'd rather see them give time to another player with a higher ceiling.

LOL another bad contract. At least Baertschi isn't a 4th liner. But not a great contract here.

But his acquisition was "somewhat" reasonable!? That's a home run when it comes to a Benning trade. Anything that is not a complete absolute f*** up needs to be celebrated.

f***ing Benning.

Considering he's our 1LW I'm happy with deal never know with Bennig it could have been worse. With where contracts are going it's respectable deal especially if he takes another step forward.

Meh........

was hoping he would be shipped out
somewhat injury prone, and he was a top 6 forward during 3 30 win seasons in a row.

Seems like a lot for a guy who misses 20 games/year, and can barely crack 30 points with half his production coming on the powerplay.

But whatever. At this point, whatever.

Its a fine contract. Past two seasons hes produced at a 42 point clip. Hes missed games and such but obviously they are hoping he continues his production and possibly improve. Plus hes good friends with Bo lol.

Not a bad deal but bye bye Goldy.
Not a 100 percent certainty....contract for Baertschi is reasonable and he has no trade protection. With the glut of forwards basically capable of scoring between 10-20 goals a season, something has to be in the works. But makes the Gagner signing last year even more of a head-scratcher.
