Confirmed with Link: Ducks re-sign Troy Terry (7 years, $7M AAV)

[AngelDuck]

That would take him right to UFA, similar to Matthews/Marner. I would think either 3-4 years or 7-8.

Understood. That’s what I think his agent will be looking for and I think there is a chance he gets it if he takes a pay cut in the AAV

 

[McDonald19]

So if zegras is 8x8 is that team friendly enough?

Yes, but I’m seeing a bridge coming…

 

[caliamad]

feel real good about this. could always be better, but I see as a candidate for captain or at least wearing one of the As permanently.

[Mr Rogers]

Verbeek gets a lot of heat here, and he has made some interesting decisions, but this is a big W for him, even if Solomon is the one doing the day-to-day on it, Verbeek is definitely behind the scenes. he ended up doing much better than i thought he would.

From Stephens’ new article:

 

[Rasp]

YES! Down to the wire but we got it done. 7 years is fantastic

 

[Ducks in a row]

Singed long term woot woot

 

[Sean Garrity]

Think for 7 year years he had earned less, but can’t hate it and have to keep him. Does make me worry what PV is gonna pay Z.

 

[Masch78]

It is a great contract just because it is a super fair deal for both sides and I have to agree, Troy is a strong candidate for a letter. Personally I'd prefer him over Cam.

 

[Kalv]

Between this and Dadonov, Pat loves going up against the clock lol.

Great news (hopefully), but will wait to see the money

Ha, yes. Sometimes, when the situation is crazy, it pays to be the calm side and get things done at that time. There might be some of that in him, Pat must be a great poker player

I wonder if being a 5th round pick, looking like a player that might never put it all together/make it as an impact player, and breaking out "late" would make him a better captain (or maybe I should say leader). A lot of the guys in the franchise history and around the league, even if they are good captains, were naturally gifted guys that were expected to do well in the league. Terry was a long shot at the time he was drafted (or else he wouldn't have been a 5th rounder) and had to work at becoming the player he is today. And I think for him, a lot of it was mental more than physical. Being able to talk to younger guys about his struggles and being able to relate to non-elite talent would be a great advantage to have from a future captain.

Interesting point especially about the mental side and I think you're right. Makes me wonder if his mental side was hurting because he was a 5th rounder? I still remember watching him play in Denver in his D+1 and I thought holly hell he looks like a first rounder. And he looked great throughout his pre-pro career and even in San Diego. He has numerous times praised Ryan Miller for helping him with the mental side.
If we look back, he was really underdeveloped for his age and that team was STACKED so he had to take on the 3rd line role that hurt his draft stock.

I wonder if Getzlaf had any involvement.

Getz is probably tasked with mentoring Carlsson. And it is well known how Getzlaf and Terry jelled together.

Maybe the groundwork for a Carlsson-Terry pairing. Probably won’t be the same as the twins, but it might be special.

Carlsson-Terry pair would be crafty AF

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Glad this got done before arbitration. He's earned this contract and Anaheim has him locked up for all of his best years

 

[AngelDuck]

Signed him for his age 26-32 seasons. Massive W for Anaheim

 

[snowave]

Happy with the result, and sounds like no ill will there, either.

 

[SmokeyDuck]

That's actually pretty decent. I stand corrected to my previous remarks about PV. Possibly.

We should be cup contenders already f*** PV

I’m not sure if this is a joke or if you are serious.

He’s been here a year and a half and while a couple trades (Lindholm, Des) can be argued, he didn’t inherit much.

I suppose he could have come in and last Summer fired Eakins and thrown all the money he had at FA’s, and may have made the playoffs.

But nothing was going to turn this team into competing for a cup in a year.

Said it before but the two of them together = the opponents never touching the puck lol

most def sarcasm.

 

[anezthes]

Dude always wants 13+ million in NHL23. This will help a lot. Thanks Troy!

With his future in Anaheim set, Troy Terry still has big NHL dreams

With his new seven-year, $49 million extension, Terry is ready to apply all that he has learned from those before him.

Love that bit about the open lines of communication with Kariya and Getz.

 

[lwvs84]

Really cool that Kariya is that involved now with the team. He's probably a very different person than Getzy was, hopefully Terry learns from both them (and Nieds) and becomes his own style of leader (captain?) based on advice they all give him.
