Confirmed Signing with Link: [DAL] Ryan Suter signing with the Stars (4 years, $3.65M AAV)

[Zirakzigil]

Cap hit is good, too many years.

 

[JustAnotherHockeyFan]

That's it? Surprised a bigger contender didn't give him a bigger deal. The way he plays even at 40 he should be worth 2-3 million as a bottom pairing vet easily

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Can we ban Pagnotta as a source?

Pretty easy to just avoid any of their posts

 

[ThatGuy22]

Wonder how much actual extra cash now he gets from buyout?

He had 10 million remaining, so he only lost 3.33 million in the Buyout.

First year of this deal, makes him whole. Than he gets another 11 Million on top of it assuming he plays the whole deal.

He made out like a bandit.

In the last two seasons he has gone from the Wild's best D to its fourth best. Dallas better hope that decline slows down. He probably won't be in the press box this year but maybe next.

Well he joins Dallas as probably their 4th best blueliner as well, so that's good.

If he was coming in as their best option on the back end, I'd be worried.

I'm not worried.

 

[Henkka]

Good signing. Suter has missed only 4 games on last 9 seasons.

It's him who is the ironman easily for the fourties as a 2nd pair D.

 

[rynryn]

no movement clause tho.

 

[JackTColton]

I like it. He doesn’t have to be the #1 guy.

 

[hockeyfanOU812]

I think the term is 1-2 too long, but the price is not that bad.

 

[State of Hockey]

The 4th year and an NMC are a steep price to pay for a lower cap hit. The next 1-2 years will be great value. After that, it could be a problem.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Would rather have Suter at that price than Savard, Ceci, Cole, Edler or some of the other guys that signed today.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Has to be at least a little nice to make $11 million by accident.

 

[Saucechucker99]

Hell of a lot better than signing Oleksiak at what he got IMO. I think both he and Miro are going to be a real solid pairing.

 

[Jugitsu]

Good signing. Suter has missed only 4 games on last 9 seasons.

Broke his ankle couple of years ago though and required surgery. Lost a step back then that he never gained back.

Property tax is where Texas gets you, if he buys a home here he'll be paying plenty in taxes. I pay more in property tax than I would in other states with income taxes, and my property tax will double by the time the county catches up to the market value of my home.

 

[TF1970]

the last multi-year older guy dallas signed has worked out pretty damn well in pavelski. i bet this one plays out similarly. suter still has game left to give no doubt and relies a lot on his smarts, which don't erode.

Suter says thanks Minnesota.

How much does he make along with his buyout.

833K per year from the buyout for 8 years.

Combined he will make (in cash) - 2.8M, 4.8M, 5.1M, 5.1M, then 833K for the next 4 years from the buyout. Cash is higher in the back end which gives Dallas cap relief if he gets bought out after two years. Conversely the Minnesota buyout which is only 6.6M in cash carries a cap hit of 26.8M (mostly accrued over the next four years), since he had a tonne of money up front.

His combined league wide cap hit over the next 4 years is - 5.9M, 9.9M, 10.9M and 10.9M.

Suter and Dumba were pretty much even as the teams 2nd best defenseman. They were also great as a pair to start the season before they were split up because Spurgeon was getting killed playing the tougher minutes with Brodin

Thanks.

Those are some big cap hits for Minnesota.
