Confirmed with Link: Jets sign Adam Lowry to 3 year contract worth $8.75 million

[Adam da bomb]

What a steal of a contract for the Jets.

I wish Chevy had offered him 3.5 million and signed him for 6 years. This contract is going to be a steal for the next 3 years I think but I wish he was locked up long term as a member of the core. What a player. Sorry I ever questioned you Lurch!

Credit to Chevy where it's due, many of us were okay with exposing him in the XD to Vegas, in hindsight it would have been a huge mistake.

Lowry is worth far more than Ehlers to this team right now.

 

[winnipegger]

Lowry is a lot quicker than I remember. Would suck to play against him. He is so good at reading plays in the D zone and getting body position.

 

[Adam da bomb]

Lowry despite his strong physical play also takes way fewer penalties than al Captaino.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Pure robbery when he is healthy WHAT A FORCE!!

 

[DiggerD]

So much better than the comments 2 years ago

Jets have a surplus of wingers and few centres, so yes.

Jets have a surplus of wingers and few centres, so yes.

Lowry is one of our most if not most dominant player so yes.

Lowry is one of our most if not most dominant player so yes.

I mean, I was also the one to bump the thread and hardly need convincing that Lowry is valuable.

 

[SoCalJetsFan]

This contract just gets better every game. I am now thinking my next jersey will be 17.

 

[Neuf]

Think he can top 15 goals with no powerplay time?

 

[Adam da bomb]

Think he can top 15 goals with no powerplay time?

At this pace I think he can get 20 and 20 asissts.
He probably won't keep up this pace which is to say no clue.

If he stays healthy absolutely. That and 30-40 assists puts him in Selke territory. Thrilled to have him on this team.

I feel like he has been our best forward so far this season. Adam is an incredibly important piece on this team. Thank god the NHL market seems to over value goals and points scored for forwards because if the market monetized his impact on the games he plays in he would be much more expensive.

At this rate it's looking like we should have signed him for more years.

Great player. You can win cup with this kind of 3rd center. Lowry and Tanev is just a great duo-doesn't matter who is the 3rd player but I would put frenchie next to him. Little bit more goal scooring power for 3rd line would make sense,

 

[Kaako Kappo]

What a steal of a contract for the Jets.

No its not. Its a basic contract. God i wish i could fast forward the first few months of NHL. The hot takes kill my brain cells.

Great player, though.

It is always easy to say this, but you actually need to have the player and his agent agree. In Lowry's case it is unlikely he'd be willing to take a $2.9 M AAV into his 30's and reduce his opportunity at a bigger contract. If you wanted him to do that you would have had to make it worth while and go well north of his current AAV. As it is he will be a UFA at 28 y/o and have the best opportunity for his career contract.

Lurch is a beast. What a deal

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

Lowry is worth far more than Ehlers to this team right now.

Talk about damning with faint praise.

 

[Ukkosenjumala]

With Lowry playing so well I wish they would see what he would do as the 2C with maybe Perreault and Laine, give them proper minutes and see if Lowry can spark his offensive flare further. I know Maurice tilts towards the defense side of things with Lowry but Little is a capable defensive center and they could balance out the zone times pretty favourably. Both of them kill penalties as it is already so I don't see a huge difference with the distribution of ice time except this way you could see if they find offense together and you would have a pretty banging 2nd line.

And now he's winning people trips to Vegas
