Confirmed with Link: Jarry signed to 3 year $10.5m contract

[Speaking Moistly]

Solid deal, looking forward to seeing who or what the next dumb goaltender argument here will be about.

Should’ve kept Murray. Make DeSmith the starter. How do we get Fleury back?! Never should have traded Gustavsson.

[Speaking Moistly]

We’re a predictable group. Also, “should have gotten a good vet backup instead of DeSmith.” I think that will be the most reasonable discussion we’ll see. Jarry is a young goalie, the team can be lazy as hell defensively, etc. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him struggle as being The Guy next season without being an outright disaster.

Nice

Thank you for everything MM!

This is for the best.

[Habs10025]

Good deal for Jarry and Pittsburgh.

 

[HandshakeLine]

Thanks! I hate it already.

 

[ImporterExporter]

We are going to sell Murray for peanuts. Just as I've been saying all along.

Great contract though for the Pens here.

 

[ColePens]

Can't deny how much Jarry deserves this. He waited through the MAF/Murray and got his shot... crushed it. The kid deserves it. I'm happy for him. 3.5 is legit what everyone was saying around here so kudos to them.

 

[ziggyjoe212]

Great contract.

I have a feeling mm will go for a 2nd.

 

[DRAGO 18]

Really good contract. Excellent job JR

 

[Andy99]

Great contract.

I have a feeling mm will go for a 2nd.

well we definitely can’t take a contract back with JJ still on the payroll...

fair deal for both sides...

 

[JRS91]

I'm going to miss Matt Murray.

Solid deal, about what everyone expected in terms of term and annual cap hit.

 

[Giskard]

At first I read it as 10.5m per year

 

[Headshot77]

Now trade Jack Johnson for MAF @ 50%

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

AAV is exactly what Fleury counts against cap with full retention...dominoes people

 

[HandshakeLine]

Now trade Jack Johnson for MAF @ 50%

If I wouldn't have to hear the screeching of pro-and-anti-MAF types on this board, I would totally do it to be rid of JJ. That's a good trade, even if you don't like MAF.

 

[TNT87]

Our relationship with Murray was sort of like a cocaine binge in Vegas surrounded by lots of beautiful women. Lots of highs, lots of lows but in the end we have to be thankful of the memories and move on.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Solid deal

 

[Pengu]

Don't make me despise you even more JR by trading for Fleury...

 

[Will Hunting]

Very good deal. Jarry should be able to outperform his salary here. If he plays up to this contract, then it's kind of a disappointment. So yeah, great value here.

Would you do a MAF (retained) for JJ ?

 

[BHD]

I’m sure they have a “thank you” card ready for Murray as well.

 

[Rakell67]

Would you do a MAF (retained) for JJ ?

Cap wise, it would work if Fleury is at 50% but I don’t want him back only because I can’t stand the flock of Fleury fans.

Fleury ($3.50)
Stephenson RFA
For
Johnson ($3.25)
Aston-Reese ($1.0)

send DeSmith down to WBS saves $1.075

so Pens Cap space would be $4.46 with Stephenson, Simon and Lafferty to sign while also having to sign another D Since they usually carry 8.

Guentzel Crosby Kapanen
Zucker Malkin Rust
Stephenson McCann Simon
