Good, pretty sure he signed on the cheap or at least hope so.

Good News! Another Good Move By Bergevin

 

[void]

$3.5m-$4m?

 

[Figaro95*]

looking forward to seeing those numbers and how much more magic Berg has up his sleeve.

 

[Alexdaman]

I guess we're not the only ones having trouble sleeping.

Let's wait and see what the numbers are before saying it's a good move...

 

[Habskrieg]

Interesting. Was sure we were going to keep him this year. Though, I expected us to trade him in order to make room for Galchenyuk (even possibly Eller). Thought we would trade him at some point. As much as I like the guy. His size will always be an issue. And there will most likely be better.

I had also thought of possibly signing Desharnais at a good salary. In order to make it easier (or better) for him to be traded.

Really curious to see the details.

 

[MarkersMark*]

My guess is 2.9 for 3 years.

 

[Figaro95*]

I guess we're not the only ones having trouble sleeping.

we're the real fans..






...or the unemployed ones.

 

[PuckNorris]

3 years/10 million is my guess.

 

[777]

Considering the entire PK process I going to assume (and hope) it's a low number.

I guess we're not the only ones having trouble sleeping.

this is true

we're the real fans..






...or the unemployed ones.

but this is also true in my case..

 

[elsubz]

Good for him he deserves it. I'm guessing between 3.5M and 4M

 

[Monctonscout]

My guess is 3 years at 3.75...11.25 mil

 

[Galchenioretty]

5 years 5.5

 

[FireBurningBin]

The writing is on the wall for Plekanec for best or worst

 

[Kikizaz]

...or the unemployed ones.

Or the west coast ones

The writing is on the wall for Plekanec for best or worst

No, I hope this doesn't turn into a needless bash of Plekanec. He signed a fair contract with the team, and has entirely deserved it. Just because we now have several good players who happen to play C, does not mean we need to "make room" for anyone.

 

[Bieber fever]

9M$ /3 year

 

[Scintillating10]

I can't see him getting more than Subban

 

[poetryinmotion]

I can't see him getting more than Subban

Me n'either.

 

[SB164]

So I'm not the only night owl here, huh?

Good for DD. Hope he keeps up his recent play.

 

[Habskrieg]

I can't see him getting more than Subban

Same. But he no longer gets the bridge contract treatment. So he could get slightly more... Besides, it seems pretty obvious that PK is palying much better than his salary. And may get an extension.


I'm hoping it's under 4 mill per year.

 

[HarlemsFinest]

good stuff. and plek is still an integral part of this team. this extension does not make him expendable.

 

[Kikizaz]

Hoping for approx 3 per.
