A lot of people think he's Jack Johnson for some reason but they don't know what they're talking about it.

Another "terrible defenseman" that's never on the ice when the other team scores.

Agree. Not a big name signing or trade, I'm absolutely fine with this acquisition.

Wow. This guy ruined the Avs season. Worst deadline trade add ever. He made the Avs significantly worse. His turnovers were crippling. This guy isn’t an NHL level player.

Nemeth was arguably the worst defenseman on Detroit last season. If I were New York I would have worked to get Mark Staal back on that 2 million per year contract before signing Nemeth.

I don't think this deal is as bad as some here, but you never know. Sometimes all a guy needs is a change of scenery. I want to give Drury the benefit of the doubt here.

It been a while since I have seen a guy make consistently bad unforced errors at the rate Nemeth does. I think his wife must make amazing Swedish food and they didn't want Lundkvist to get home sick so they brought him in to be his team uncle. No other logical explanation because 5 games into his career Schneider is already the better player.

It’s the term that makes this one ugly. Nemeth has been neutral to disappointing all season, but that wouldn’t be the end of the world if he was a one year stop gap while all the youth on the blue line gets sorted out. 3 years is definitely no bueno and I doubt he plays it out in NY.

No, it’s not just the term. The AAV is far too much for a guy who isn’t an NHL level defenseman.

He’s a literally a detriment to this team.

He'll play it out in NY cause none of the other 31 GM are touching that awful deal.

Still think it was a very good signing?
First of all, don't be bumping my posts from July. I'll beat you with a pool noodle and steal your dog.

This is what I thought we were getting
