Confirmed Signing with Link: [NYR] Tony DeAngelo signs extension (2 years, $4.8M AAV)

[Lindberg Cheese]

you really think deangelo was going to get $6 per with term as an RFA based on one shortened seasons worth of production?

in what realm was that really going to happen?

maybe take a lap around the block and relax

I didn’t, My number was actually about 5 mil with not too much term. The realm in which he got paid is called the NHL realm when a RD pots 53 pots in 68 games as a progression over past performance. And who needs to relax, a fan contributing to a thread for his team or a very odd NYR stalker who feels some obsession to throw shade around?

 

[Sweetpotato]

Great contract.

Always loved watching this guy even though he appears to be a prick.

 

[CupsOverCash]

Nice deal for NY

 

[KingPuckChoo]

Rangers signed two quality players for cheap today, good job!

 

[CupInSIX]

Hopefully he has a full NTC so I don't have to see any more awful proposals with him.

 

[Aqualung]

He’s better defensively than you think, which might justify the initial claim. So many of you have a very outdated idea of his defensive game.

Surprised about your take on him given I thought you would have him pegged lower like offensive minded young dmen like Hughes.

 

[Kupo]

Gorton traded a 1st for Trouba and two 2nds for Fox. That was what was being referred to. As previously stated, let him play the left side and I doubt they make it through the year with all 3 (Fox, Trouba, ADA) being healthy. Quality depth and options are a good thing.

I know what the poster was implying. Look at his username. He’ll say whatever he can to try and take a jab at Gorton, even when he’s failing miserably at it.

Fact is Gorton traded for ADA who was a question mark.

Then he acquired Trouba. Then, Fox.

ADA averaged over 19min a night, which is not your average 3rd pairing dmen TOI.

So, the whole premise of that post is straight up asinine.

ah a stalker on the public FA thread... I don't see me mozeying on over to the rangers boards

its ok, you can sleep well tonight

 

[JT Kreider]

How did you like him in the playoffs vs the Canes?

Oh c'mon. It is foolish to take anything away from those early qualifying games and try and base any sort of long term opinion on that.

 

[periferal]

Most underrated player in the NHL

 

[Shocker]

The only people who would suggest such a thing are 100% guilty of barely watching ADA play.



Gorton traded Stepan and Raanta for ADA and the 7th OA. Gorton didn’t trade a 1st and 2nd’s.

Also — ADA finished second with TOI in the team (well, 3rd technically if you count Skjei).

Or the people who have watched him play didn't have fanboy glasses on and see what he is.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Surprised about your take on him given I thought you would have him pegged lower like offensive minded young dmen like Hughes.

Shocking. You again with making everything about Quinn Hughes

Wouldn't it be the opposite? I don't claim DeAngelo's one of the best defensemen in the league. I think the best defensemen in the league must be able to defend at least at a league average level, hence I don't rank Hughes as highly as some people do. DeAngelo's defense gets constantly trashed, and most people say he's a 3rd pair PP guy. I think there's some room in between that and him being one of the best defensemen in the league. Wouldn't you agree? And if he was actually let's say the 50th or so best defensemen in the league and people say he's a 3rd pair defensemen with terrible defense, why wouldn't he among the most underrated players in the league?

Any unbiased observer will admit it. What Trouba did has no place in bantam level hockey

Wow. Trouba sucks

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Great deal for the Rangers.

 

[TBF1972]

I was figuring 5 to 6.

Might still be trade bait.

even more so. at 6 he would have been much harder to move.

i really like the term for the rangers. two years means he expires in the same year as the elc of fox. they can than make the call, which one they will keep, if cap is scarce.

 

[Allan92]

$4.8, unreal

Gorton is my daddy

 

[TBF1972]

Wow. Trouba sucks

he is comically bad in this sequence.

but deangelo is just starring in aho's face and tries to stop him with his eyes. unfortunately aho doesn't pay attention, as he is fully concentrated on scoring a goal.

 

[TBF1972]

that's too much praise. last years bridge contracts as a comparison:
werenski 3y/5m
mcavoy 3y/4.9m
sanheim 2y/3.25m
carlo 2y/2.85m

or in 2018:
morrissey 2y/3.15m
nurse 2y/3.15m

it's totally possible, that sergachev signs a similar or even better bridge deal.

ADA's point totals were huge leverage that most of those players didn't have, for better or for worse.

Negotiations also vary, we have no idea what factors drove negotiations in any way

Finally, I don't care about negotiations on other teams from last year. All I care about is how this affects the Rangers and our cap structure. What Tony brings to this team is worth 4.8, easily. Maybe if he was on the lightning he wouldn't be as valuable, but that isn't the case. His points and vision are extremely valuable for us

 

[Dicky113]

I’m unbiased. Both players looked bantam level on that play

 

[the Chad Kilger]

Sheltered by who? Trouba? His partner all season Marc Staal?
He's the 4th leading scoring dman in the NHL, 5 years younger than anyone ahead of him, and is the #1 dman in the league in transition offense, nearly on par with McDavid

yes sheltered by Trouba. sheltered refers to QoC. So another RD ahead in the line up is effectively shelthering him

 

[Stuzchuk]

Very good deal for the Rangers! Now prove that you can continue on this pace and you'll get a longer contract

NY Rangers; $80,645,633 AAV
Ryan Strome & Brendan Lemieux to re-sign

I love how in another post you knew what I was implying ala Trouba Fox. That didn’t count McQuaid the year before or how during a rebuild they brought in a older more expensive version of Tony in the form of Shatty to take his spot. Can you explain to me how that doesn’t show faith in Tony?

He finished third in TOI but you fail to mention he spent 3 min of that on PP per games. He also avg 2 seconds per game on Pk but me claiming he is awesome offensively just upset you huh? If a game is 60 min on average how is it impressive he spends less than 20 minutes. The reason other defenders has less ice time is Brendan Smith while playing on 4th line would drop back and kill penalties. Tony trailed Trouba,Skjei,Brendan Smith,Lindgren,Staal,Fox in PK time. He trailed Trouba,Skjei and Fox in EV time. Two of those 3 were RHD higher on depth chart.


We will see if if he is on the 3rd pairing next year or top pairing. Lindgren and Fox are locked in as our 2nd pair. We will see but based off last season he got less EV ice time than Jack Johnson who joins Brendan Smith and Lindgren on the left side.

He is an elite puck moving Dman but needs improvement on the defensive side. I’m not sure why you disagree with that

Thank you, Gorton constructed a very good RD corps in very little time. Dems the facts and no I’m not his mom or agent

your defensive awareness is better than ada's.

i am not criticizing the deal at all. ada might makes it a steal. i just thought it's not an outlier (much cheaper) than comparable bridge deals.
