Johnny Hockey Contract Watch - The End of Days?

[Flamester]

These two should have been signed long before July 1st rolled around, yet here we are 2nd week into August with nothing. Wtf is treliving doing? Is there a chance Johnny tells the flames to F off and demands a trade ?

not worried until Kucherov signs.

I have a feeling Gaudreau's camp is looking at him as a comparable, and Monahan's extension obviously won't be announced until Gaudreau's is.

 

[Taranis]

I'm not concerned. Probably just a matter of +/- a year and 500k or whatever that will matter down the road.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Yes we should be worried. The Apocalypse is near.

 

[Anglesmith]

No. Both have made very amicable statements about expecting the signing to happen soon throughout the summer. Monahan (I think it was) even openly discussed the concept of a hometown discount to help the team win.

This is just Treliving's MO. Take a long time and get the right deal.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

I honestly think Sean/John should be worried. No contracts and they likely don't play in the World Cup.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Ferland signed the day before training camp started last year. And that was a $800k x 2Y contract.

BT plays hardball.

Bettman said the other day that players are allowed to play regardless. Plus I dont Sean/John give a F***

Allowed to play, yes. But if you have 50-60 million US on the table are you really going to play? I seriously doubt it.

 

[Slush]

I'm not worried until the season starts and we don't have them signed. They will be signed before then.

 

[Pirate King Luffy]

Yes we should be worried. The Apocalypse is near.

The 4 horsemen will arrive. The moon blows up. Backlund is traded.

 

[Backlund]

There are a few other RFAs who also need contracts so I wouldn't be worried. Sean and Johnny seem like they genuinely want to be here.

Treliving is trying to sign both these guys likely to long term deals, they are franchise pieces.

Both players have different agents, and it's been mentioned the idea of them getting matching deals. Imagine the challenges of this if it happens.

Treliving needs to get both players signed to deals that allows the Flames to resign Bennett and Tkachuk down road. We also need money to resign supporting players.

This was never gonna happen over night, I don't know why anyone is worried. Both players are on the record for saying that they are re-signing.

Yeah, I imagine if they both had the same agent, the deals would have been done, if not closer.

But yeah, I don't know why anyone would be worried. It's not like either side doesn't want this to happen. It's just ironing out the details.

And really, they're doing this for the fans cause they gotta give us something to speculate about or else there will be nothing left for us to talk about here

I think they sign six year deals. In six years Gio's contract is up and we can use that money to give Monahan and Gaudreau raises.

Edit: they don't seem too interested in signing 8 year deals for whatever reason or I think it would have happened.

6 years x 6.25 per, both Johnny and Sean.

 

[Rockmorton]

It's August. Agents, players & GMs are all allowed to take long vacations.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Good grief. It's not even September yet.

Summer is the only time that people can take time off in Hockey really. I'm not even remotely surprised it's taking a little while.

Plus last offseason on locker cleanout day, Treliving said extending Gio was the #1 priority, and it took until October, despite being the top thing on his list.

It will happen. Just give it time.

 

[Deen]

6 years x 6.25 per, both Johnny and Sean.

If we get Johnny under 7 million and Sean for around 6, I will be one happy Flames fan.

Didn't he sign in late August? But IIRC, that Gio contract took a while to hammer out.

 

[Boomstick]

Johnny and Monny who? Are they any good? I've never heard of them.

I think this Johnny guy was a 4th round pick, probably won't amount to anything special.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

I actually hope we trade Gaudreau for Nick Ritchie #truculence

 

[Johnny GODreau]

We should be very worried. The sky is falling..
