From what I understand, Dupuis has a limited no-trade. Must submit a list of 8 teams before each season he cannot be dealt to.

4 years, $15mil? **** off Dupuis...and you too Shero...

****ing terrible.

 

[Waffle Fries]

That's really ****ing awful.

 

[Crafton]

KCD from here to eternity. [sigh]

 

[Letang fan 58]

4 yrs 15 is fine. clarkson is going to get more then that ffs. people dont realize thats still taking probably a mil less then he would get as ufa.

 

[WayneSid9987]

We knew he'd get a raise but 4 years?
Me no likey.

 

[Big McLargehuge]

For what he provides and the market...the money is fine. That term, though...yikes.

 

[JackFr]

I feel so many conflicting things about this deal.

 

[UnderratedBrooks44]

Well it was either lock him up or force him to go elsewhere IMO. I'm fine with it. At least our team is intact minus TK.......

I still think overall we're missing something unless Crosby and Malkin absolutely shred in the playoffs, and I'm not even considering goaltending yet.

 

[Nimos]

This is all you need to know about this being a good deal for the Penguins.

AGretz: Only players with more EV goals than Dupuis past two years: Stamkos, Malkin, Tavares, Gaborik, Toews, Kessel, Ovi, Pacioretty. That's it.

 

[Beauner]

4 Years is tough to swallow. At least we know Kunitz and Dupuis will be with Sid till Kingdom Come.

 

[MichiganWolverines]

Decent deal. However, I hope that Matt Cooke is gone.

This is all you need to know about this being a horrible deal for the Penguins:

Kunitz-Crosby-Dupuis

for the next four ****ing years.

 

[Sivek]

Orpik extension is likely next at this rate. Hey, if you can lock-up non-elite guys into their late-30's, you gotta do it.

 

[CHLLL Penguin]

I like it. Guess I'm in the minority but we shall see

 

[66-30-33]

Gross!

 

[Bennett Brauer]

I like it, though I did expect people to ***** about this deal, it's pretty good for what he brings to the team, the guy is a solid player.

 

[Jacob]

I like this. I had guessed he'd be at 3.5.

 

[Marns]

I feel so many conflicting things about this deal.

You've summed up my thoughts well.

Big hometown discount by Duper, but I don't like the four years. I also don't like the idea that we're really only going to see more of the same from the Pens.

 

[swaggerjack]

Terrible. No, insanity. Kunitz/Crosby/Dupuis until 2017. More playoff exits to come.

 

[mpp9]

Hope Bennett plays well next year.

 

[Hottubber]

Don't like this deal one bit. I really hope Shero knows what he is doing going forward with some of these contracts

 

[bradshaw06]

a little too long. wonder if he got any sort of ntc
