Good


I like this guy, he works his ass off al lot of times, and plays good.

 

[Summer Rose]

This makes me happy.

 

[Jagged Ice]

Any guesses on the $$?

Any guesses on the $$?

My guess based on absolutely nothing is around $2M AAV.

 

[awfulwaffle]

Very well deserved. Hard work does pay off.

 

[moosemeister]

So happy to have him for the necks two years

 

[Puck possession wins]

Freidman says AAV is 775k.

That's a friggin steal.

 

[FinnishCoyote]

Freidman says AAV is 775k.

That's a friggin steal.

That could be one of the best contracts in the league as soon as next season

 

[Summer Rose]

So I was way off on my guess for dollar amount

 

[Kaizen]

Capfriendly has it as unconfirmed at $775k on a one way deal. A bit of a trade off but he wouldn't clear waivers anymore.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

Man, talk about a low risk high potential reward deal... sure, he might regress but he's fun to watch and root for...

 

[The Feckless Puck]

First year $750K, second year $800K.

League minimum is $650K.

That, friends, is an absolute steal.

 

[Summer Rose]

Apparently he likes it here.

 

[ParisSaintGermain]

Very well done all around, it sends all the right messages from the player and Chayka.

If he keeps improving, there will be a significantly improved contract waiting for him next year.

 

[StevenF1919]

Holy shit. That AAV is less than half of what I expected.

 

[Jagged Ice]

Apparently he likes it here.

Maybe our new shiny arena is going to Scottsdale.

 

[Mosby]

First year $750K, second year $800K.

League minimum is $650K.

That, friends, is an absolute steal.

Was totally expecting 2 mil. Kid needs a new agent.

Phenomenal

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Was totally expecting 2 mil. Kid needs a new agent.

I don't think he's worth $2M/year right now. I look at this extension as a bridge deal to see if his play is a trend or a bubble. No questioning his hustle and work ethic, but remember how Connauton looked last year compared to this year?

Hoping that his next deal is significantly higher based on merit.

So happy to have him for the necks two years

Beauty.

 

[Bonsai Tree]

Apparently he likes it here.

Maybe its not that he likes it here, it's just that he's comfortable here?

 

[mouser]

Holy ****. That AAV is less than half of what I expected.

While it's nice to see his success, we're talking about a player with 36 career NHL games, who made the most of his opportunity with all the injuries this season.

I can understand choosing the guaranteed 1-way contract money for a couple years.

Only 36 games but it's obvious the kid is a player. Usually caphits that low are reserved for borderline nhlers these days.

It's the 1-way vs 2-way contract. I'd be willing to bet Chayka offered him the option of a 2-way deal with a slightly higher NHL salary. Taking the 1-way offer guarantees he gets paid the NHL salary even if he ends up back in the minors.

 

[Lawson of Anarchy]

Dubas would have paid $3M AAV for this contract....
