I'm shook

 

[Rschmitz]

I need to read Hose's reaction to this

[Stormbreaker]

What's Kuch thinking right about now.

 

[Rschmitz]

Full NTC all the way through.

 

[Todd1a]

Like the cap hit I just hate the term

 

[Stammertime91]

This is so dumb. Great player, great AAV but the term that expires when hes 37 and the fact that we have Sergachev makes this signing a tough one for me. Disappointing. WTF.

 

[Sensung]

Terrible deal.

 

[dbieon12]

Years 3-7 will be rough. a 32-36 year old defender. Reminds me of some of the others we have had in the past. Once they lose a step...

 

[Todd1a]

6.75 avv is the new 5 avv per year now

 

[Obviously]

Hate this. Yzerman prob stacking on a NTC as usual too

 

[Todd1a]

Mcdonagh will be here long term but got to remember he probably trades Miller next season for point and kucherov to sign

 

[Todd1a]

In the next cba this will be our buyout like with Vinny

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Full NMC... For the whole time... I really don't like this deal now...Yzerman, what you doing?

 

[LordZapp]

I'm ok with the aav, good discount probably. But 7 years. Ugh. Better hope his game is like fine wine.

I agree cap hit is fine it’s the term that will kick out butt badly

 

[Rschmitz]

Hey guys it could have been worse, it could have been 8 years.

What I don't like about this is McDonagh's game doesn't translate well as he gets older. Grandpa McD isn't going to be taking the body like he does now.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

Woah there Stevie.

 

[The Gongshow]

Bye bye Karlsson

While I don't hate having a 1-2 punch of Hedman, McDonagh, the term is too long.

Stralman, Coburn, Giradri all walk now

 

[TampaJay]

They much see Serg on the right side. Otherwise you have relegated him to 3rd pair LHD for his prime years.

Mcdonagh played the rhd side in New York many times

 

[LordZapp]

Man this really puts Hedmans contract on a whole new level of amazing.

 

[The Gongshow]

Its gonna be interesting to see what they do with Serg now...

 

[DistantThunderRep]

This is our new Carle contract.
