I do find it interesting that the story of the off-season was getting Ellis signed.
That dragged to the point where people started creating ‘disappointment walls’ so they wouldn’t get betrayed again a la Suter. (You know what I mean, digging into his game and crafting all of the reasons he basically sucks.)
Ellis signs and now it’s weird that getting a good deal for both sides is somehow perceived as a problem.
I really couldn’t care less about the term. Let’s all get back together in 2023 and see if Ellis is even still a Pred at that point before worrying about it today. Bottom line to me is he’s signed at good value for the window that appears to be at minimum 3-4 years and that’s what should matter most. And even if the term holds it’s not like having an aged Ellis signed at 6.25m in 2027 is going to be the difference between being good or bad.
