Solid contract, can't really complain with that

 

[Iceman]

Locking their #1 C up... good for them.

 

[KPower]

Great # and term for a number 1 center.

 

[Hostile Offer]

Wished for a bit longer term but I'm good with this. AAV is solid.

 

[Advanced stats]

Lowest paid #1c

Impressive

All in all, Danault is a good player and makes improvements year after year.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Too much money for a fragile unproven player

 

[koyvoo]

Not terrible

 

[PriceIsGod]

Was expecting this pretty much. I like it, Hopefully by the end of this deal Kotka and Poehling have some NHL play and Danault moves into our #3C spot, that's where I would like him to be.

A good indication its a solid deal

 

[Canada4Gold]

I Danault about this. Pretty good money for a 1C I guess

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Good stuff

Too much money for a fragile unproven player

You are not a man if you flinch after taking a Chara slapshot to the face.

Alot of money wow. Dont mind the guy but didnt think he was gonna get that much money. Ahhh well its the going rate i guess!.. Good on him and good for Habs

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Great deal for Danault.

3 years takes him to UFA. Gives them room to let him go if they win the lottery this year and have Hughes-Kot-Poehling in the future. There’d be no room for Danault except on the 4th. If they don’t get a top C in this draft then they can revisit his deal in 3 years.

 

[ottawa]

Can't complain about this.

Actually he is a quality player able to produce and 3.083M$ ain't much at all.

People finding this is a bad deal never watched Danault play I suppose... 3M for a reliable two-way is quite good. Maybe this guy didnt even played his best nhl hockey yet.

 

[Super Hans]

$13.583m to lock up your 1C and 1G is about average around the league now.

Honestly, I doubt there's much more in Danault than what he's shown so far but that said, there is also no reason to think he can't continue doing what he has done. He kind of is what he is but that's well worth this contract.

 

[Price is Wright]

I wanted under $3.5M and he got it so that's good. Secondary players like him shouldn't be making $3.5M-$4.5M. Pretty much in line with what JP Pageau is making on the Sens.

Still got Debrincat+ for Shaw...
