Jarry friggin sucks dude
Well in that case, the risk we take to pay an extra 1.5-2 million is money well-spent. I don't see his value coming up that much anyway unless he brings us to the Cup, in which case, who even cares at that point. We're in this to win it, aren't we?There's an issue here with his next contract. I'd be ok with it if Hextall got him on a 5M couple year deal now. Our issues arise if he does "prove it" and demands like 7M for multiple years.
That with the leverage of a poor replacement plan for him. There's a lot to go into this beyond "he hasn't proven his playoff worth".
Happy to give him money if he brings us another Cup for the 87/71/58 era.
That's really my point here. Instead of justifying him as a top-13 goalie or whatever, can we maybe just get a playoff series win out of the guy before we give him a big raise and term?What if you re-sign Jarry but he continues to play like ass in the playoffs? I don’t really want to have to deal with fans here blindly defending a crappy goalie like the early 2010’s again .
