Nice pay day for him.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

When you realize he's only being paid $200K more than Josh Anderson... LOLBERGY.

Term matters

 

[Stuzchuk]

good signing for DET... he's 100% part of the rebuilding core there

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Solid deal. Curious to see if he can actually get a few good healthy seasons under his belt, because the guy has talent and has shown it in stretches.

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

This is a steal if he's healthy.

Term matters

Indeed it does. Mantha is way more worth 7 years than Anderson is...

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Pretty good deal

 

[Mrfenn92]

Good deal for both sides. Decent security for mantha and less risk in years for the wings

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Not bad Mantha 4 years and comes slightly under $6 mil per. Nice job by Stevie Y and nice deal for Mantha takes him up to age 30 and he can still cash in later.

 

[Conbon]

Steal of a deal

 

[Mickey Marner]

Solid deal.

 

[Henkka]

Evolving-hockey estimated 6.5M for 4-year deal.

Seems like the bargain caphits have moved from Tampa to Detroit.

I wonder why.

Steve "freaking" Yzerman.

 

[Funk21]

Great deal, Yzerman making shrewd moves and signings. Congrats Wings fans!

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Great deal for Detroit. Gotta feel for Mantha, though. If he hadn't had his season de-railed between injuries and COVID, he was probably looking at a long term, $7.5M to $8M deal.

 

[Hammettf2b]

Was hoping for 6 years but knew that was a pipe dream as Mantha reportedly wanted a shorter term. Still loves this deal though.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Great deal for Detroit. Gotta feel for Mantha, though. If he hadn't had his season de-railed between injuries and COVID, he was probably looking at a long term, $7.5M to $8M deal.

I hope he can manage with a peasant like 5.7m a year.

 

[Kranix]

Babs always said he had an NHL release.

 

[wej20]

Nice deal for a guy who has paced for 30+ goals 60+ points the past two seasons. Will be a steal if he can stay more healthy.

 

[DRW204]

nice deal. locked up during his prime years at 5.7M

 

[Tetsuo]

I hope he can manage with a peasant like 5.7m a year.

Yeah $22.8M pretax how will he ever manage.
