Confirmed Signing with Link: [CBJ] Max Domi signs extension (2 years, $5.3M AAV)

[CLW]

Really?
If that happens it means you gave away Anderson for a 3rd.

You are leaving out the part where Domi scores 100-140 points+ for CBJ over the next two seasons. Domi should be motivated to work his butt off for his UFA deal. This gives him a chance to prove he is a real #2 C in the NHL. Can he make it? Very good deal for CBJ.

 

[sansabri]

Ouch, so that means in 2 years Domi leaves to Toronto, loved the trade yesterday and I love it even more now! Hope habs can lock up Anderson longterm.

how is TO going to afford him - unless you think he'll play for league minimum?

 

[wahsnairb]

Good money, bad that it takes him straight to UFA...

doesn’t make the trade any less brutal for Montreal, though.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

5m x 2 is my guess, maybe 5.5m x 3 years

Best guess I've read so far.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

He took $2 million less per year so he doesn't have to deal with the overbearing Montreal media and fans. Sounds like a good deal to me.

That's the best you could come up with ?

Back to the drawing board for you !

 

[TSA0402]

Still don't particularly like the contract, but it makes sense that is bridges for some of the young players to develop and provides them with a 2C.

Gives Texier, Bemstrom, Foudy etc longer to develop.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

For Domi this is a good contract IMO. I know CBJ fans probably wanted a longer duration but after last season he wouldn’t sell himself low.

I expect Josh A to sign a similar contract.

 

[hmc1987]

Is that the same guy that scored 27 goals the season before.
No problem bro.

Playing with Panarin? The same Panarin that gave like 4-5 Rangers career years in his first season with the Rags?

No problem, bro

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

To me Anderson isn't worth much more than 3rd anyways.

Maybe late 2nd tops.

A good old preemptive strike post. Nice.

No problem, bro

Problem with your reply is that he rarely played with Panarin when he scored 27, so not sure what your point is? I believe Panarin was in on only 3 of his goals that year.

Infact one of Anderson's better qualiies (and there are many) is that he more or less produces on his own, he doesn't need a Panarin to propup his goal scoring. The fact he is going to get to play with Suzuki is an added bonus and he should be able to easily replicate or better those numbers. (if healthy)

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Is that the same

Hey bro, you must've missed the 19-20 season where CBJ traded a player who had 4 points, 1 goal and 3 assists for a 3rd round pick.

That alone isn't a bad deal.

Thanks bro

Is that the same player who scored 27 goals the previous seasons and is a very nice power forward ?

If so, thanks a lot.

 

[HuGo Sham]

leafs fans sure have A LOT to say about this trade. I mean, like A LOT. i wonder why....

 

[Monk]

So is he just blowing smoke Bergevin's way? Cause he's about to get anywhere from 3 to 6 years, Chiarot to Petry range on our cap structure. He told our media he's ready to play his style again.


As for TSN;

"My shoulder is 100 per cent stable. I've spoken to a lot of guys who had torn labrums in the past, and they've said that shoulder feels stronger than the other one."

Anderson added he thinks he would have been ready to play in the second round of the playoffs had the Blue Jackets advanced.

Not saying anything about his situation with Montreal, just explaining why Jarmo traded him. He didn't want to pay Anderson what Anderson was asking for, and Anderson wouldn't budge.

 

[Shocker]

A good old preemptive strike post. Nice.

Thanks for not adding anything to the convo, like always.

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Thanks for not adding anything to the convo, like always.

How did I not add to the discussion ?

Am I not allowed to give my opinion in a different manner ?

Unless I was too deep... ?

 

[Roadhouse]

You said "especially with the injury risk" so was that your take or Jarmo?

That take assumes negative things are more likely to happen with Andy's shoulders than positive ones, so just wondering if that's you or Jarmo thinking that. I provided the latest from Andy and his recovery, which Dreger on 4 Sep on 690 Lunch (towards end of clip on tsn.ca) had a ton of time to heal which means "he should be more than good to go".

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Little bit disappointing it's only two years, but it was probably unrealistic to think Domi would sign for longer. He wants to explore the UFA market when he has the opportunity.

 

[ole ole]

Playing with Panarin? The same Panarin that gave like 4-5 Rangers career years in his first season with the Rags?

No problem, bro

Ya no problem and by the way THANKS.

 

[Dueling Banjos]

Domi & Torts, match made in....time will tell

Jarmo didn't specifically cite concerns about Anderson's injury, and by all accounts, Anderson is ready to go. But I can't imagine that didn't play a role to some degree.

 

[glenbuis]

CBJ makes out like bandits and the two year bridge is a really smart solution for both the player and the team for the reasons you mentioned.
I really like it for CBJ, horrible asset management from MB.

Give Anderson 20 games first .

 

[seanlinden]

This deal makes a lot more sense for Montreal when you hear that this is what it took to sign Domi....

Yes, it's "lower" risk because you don't know what kind of player Max Domi is really going to be, but it removes basically all of the upside to the fact that he is so young.

 

[Pietrangelo]

Domi should have been motivated to work his butt off for this current deal and we saw how that worked out for him. What makes you think he’ll get 140+ points over the next 2 seasons? Lol. I’d be surprised if he breaks 90 points over the next 2 seasons

Which Domi turns up, first year Montreal Domi or second year Domi? That's why it was a smart deal by Jarmo. He gets two years of Domi. If Domi sucks too bad. If he is great, great. This time the excuses are starting to run out for Domi, and he has the UFA contract as motivation.

 

[JacketLife]

We’re living in a Covid world, and anyone saying this contract is only about Domi being able to leave in two years doesn’t understand that. We’re going to see A LOT of shorter deals because no one wants a long term deal based on the flat cap.

And the Jackets would be right to not want to do long term on a player who has some issues. They’ve been burned by some pretty bad long term deals.

And I’m sick of this “So he can leave Columbus” bit. It’s old and overplayed. TWO players. It sucked Panarin and Duchene both wanted out the same year, but each had a total of ONE team they did want to play for.
Bob doesn’t count. He left because the Jackets wouldn’t show him the money. Rightfully so.

Anyway, welcome aboard Domi. Glad you were a lot easier to sign than Andy. 5.3 is lower than I was expecting so I’m pretty happy with it. We replaced Wennberg with a massive upgrade for only .4 more cap space.
