Confirmed with Link: De La Rose re-signed 2 years (900K)

[Le Barron de HF]

I would say the people who think he's getting 3 years at 3.5M or MORE as you suggested a second ago..

Rust, a winger, is getting 3.5M. Cizikas is getting 3.35M. Eakin: 3.85M. BTW I didn't suggest a penny over 3.5M in my post.

Is that what i said.

You actually didn't say anything of substance lol, your post was open to interpretation

So Peca gets $1.3 and DLR gets $900???

That’s just weird.

 

[justafan22]

Meh. Cut ties with him in 2 years if he doesn't progress. He'll be 25 by then so easy to cut bait.

 

[1909]

How does Jacob de la Rose get 900k per year but Duclair barely 650k

Because MB is our GM.

Peca was a UFA
DLR was a RFA

huge difference

Duclair was also a UFA. How does Peca get double Duclair and times two years?

 

[NobleSix]

Oh boy!!!!

Duclair was an RFA that wasn't qualified, that's how he became a UFA. Peca was a UFA at the end of his contract. Different contexts.

Also, Duclair had a bad season in Arizona followed by a bad season split between Arizona and Chicago. If Duclair agreed to sign at league minimum, then his value wasn't high at all.

Whereas Peca was being offered more money by another team, but Habs ended up giving him a two-year deal, which lowered his AAV for the team, and he accepted Habs' offer.

MB is probably lying about “more money from another team”...

 

[Habs Halifax]

good for him, curious as to what danault salary will be, people keep saying 3 mill and i think theyre absolutely crazy thinking that

I think a long term deal could be somewhere around $3M AAV but he has two more years of RFA left. He has only played one full season too. I'd sign him to a one year prove it deal. Some people think Danault is a #2C or #3C but he could end up being moved to #3 LW in a few years. Kotkaniemi, Poehling, DLR, Olofsson, Peca, Vejdemo, Evans. Danault is going to have to prove to me he can be that #3C for us and battle out DLR, Olofsson, Peca, Vejdemo for that role.

I like the game DLR showed us when Pleky was gone last year. He is a big body that can skate and he causes turn overs. Danault will have competition at the bottom 2 center spot in a few years.

Too bad Pleks will retake his spot cause DLR to regress.

Potential 3rd line center > Potential 3rd line winger.

Interested to see how this unfolds. I see DLR battling Danault

Not really. One is UFA, the other is RFA. That's just the way things work in this thing called real life .

Duclair was also a UFA. How does Peca get double Duclair and times two years?

Duclair's has bounced around quite a bit and has a bit of a buyer beware tag. Peca by all accounts is a solid citizen who was just burried on a club with a whole bunch of very talented similar players.

ANYWAYS! Happy for Jacob De La Rose!! The Swede with the coolest name!! Congrats kid. Make us proud! Hard working kid deserves this!

 

[badi]

He is a waist of a roster spot but great for Tanking

Are you saying he's fat?

 

[VilleEmardHabs]

De La Rose is the perfect 4 th line center. Fast , Big , Hits , Love him .

 

[Hostile Offer]

Excellent signing for what he provides. It's not going to turn the tides or anything but getting these depth signings done holds its importance too.

 

[badbrains]

Solid.

Cheap for a 2nd line C.

 

[dackelljuneaubulis02]

I like that he's been improving over the last 2 years. I still think there's a bit more untapped offense than he gets credit for. Not a lot of course. He could be a proper 3rd line C. Might have to move to the wing though if he wants to get a real spot in a top 9. Even if he doesn't I still like his game. Fine with him in the bottom 6.

 

[Le compétiteur]

When he was drafted I was projecting him as a solid defensive center that could give 30-40 points each year.

Now what I see is a double shutdown player ... as he can shotdown both team at the same time.

I would like to see a DLR - Drouin- Gallagher line. DLR to cover while Drouin have the green light to go offence first. As long we don't have a real 1C that's about our only option to have a first line that produce more goals that what they allow.

Four teams in 4 years for a 23 year old is not a good thing. Salary suppressor that.
