JBB finally listened.

Can't wait to see the amount of whining this is gonna cause lol

JBB finally listened.

I say 2.95 AVV

 

[Outl4w]

I say 2.95 AVV

I hope not. 1.5 tops.

 

[Point21]

under 2m is fine, anything over 2.5m is getting into overpay territory

 

[Todd1a]

I hope not. 1.5 tops.

2.95 AVV it’s JBB it’s always an over pay most of the time lol

 

[DistantThunderRep]

The amount of whinge here is going to be unbearable. No matter the outcome, people are going to bitch.

 

[ccman68]

2 years should mean lower aav imo. maybe helps us sign someone else as well

Why are we one of the few teams that never release shit within like 5 minutes of it "leaking" out? 2 hours now and not even a peep since Friedman said something

Who even knows. It's annoying as shit. The Lightning are legitimately the most tight lipped sports franchise I've ever seen. When there isn't a peep you know they're busy

 

[Point21]

f*** off

 

[Zwui21]

f*** off

Bruh

 

[Zwui21]

This is honestly ridiculous, how in the f*** is he worth that amount of money on a 2 year deal after his overall performance this season? Atrocious.

For this kinda money, it should have been at least a 4 years deal.

 

[Rschmitz]

What a stupid f***ing trade

 

[Master P]

Don’t let @Todd1a see it till we’re ready.

 

[Master P]

I’d still like to see how he does over a full season here before making any crazy judgments.

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

All I can do is laugh.

Hope Jeannot can turn it around for us.

 

[JTBF81]

Another overpay, what a surprise....

 

[Crunchrulz]

f*** off

On the plus side, this should put an end to any thoughts of a quality free agent joining the club for a bargain basement price for now.

 

[JTBF81]

Well, if they can trade Myers and send down Fleury, they still would have around 2.4-2.5 for a an actual F upgrade and still run 13F, 7D, 2G. If they just send Myers down, they'd have between 2.1 and 2.2. If they send down the current 12th F and choose to go 12F, 8D, 2G, the money is about the same.

 

[Zwui21]

I really can't understand this contract.

Way higher AAV than projected. Short term. After a sh!t season.

If he keeps sucking, it's gonna be a big overpay. If he blows up, he'll take us to the cleaner's in 2 year time.
Literally no way for us to win on it.

Not really, with best cap management(I know, cue the laughs), they could still have around 2.5 for a F signing.

At least in 2 years, the cap should be significantly higher, so if he does play well and not make the trade one of the worst in many years, at least the cap space should be there. It's been a terrible deal thus far in all facets though, so why stop now with the contract.
