Great contract, sad that Coots will never win a cup.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Good shit.

 

[Hurricane28]

Good deal.

 

[GKJ]

I guess we don’t have to worry about Sean Couturier waiting out the season.

Great contract for him. Glad he's locked up. If anything, it'll make the GM clean some cap next season too.

Now do the same for G.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Cap hit is good. Can’t say it’s not.

Maintain that his value in a trade with one year left on his contract would have been more beneficial to the future success of things, if the vision was slightly different.

Alas, this is the path we are on. Those knees better hold up.

I thought Coots was going to leave because we are a shit franchise.....

 

[Lindberg]

I was hoping he'd walk along with Giroux. At this point I'd rather see the franchise be a failure.

I thought Coots was going to leave because we are a shit franchise.....

I also read it at least zero times on HF!

 

[GKJ]

He definitely took less than he could have open market. Before the pandemic I thought he could’ve gotten $10m given the deal he was already on

 

[kudymen]

Kirill Kaprizov whisperer gets a good deal done, immediately leading to weird strawmen anyway

 

[backburner]

That seems dirt cheap. I expected at least 8.5

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

I'm too lazy to edit in text, but pretend that one spidey is labelled Svech, and the other is labelled Couturier

 

[FLYguy3911]

We knew he loved the Thompson deal. I guess the Brassard signing got the pen to paper.

 

[FlyerNutter]

It would take some gall that I’m not sure they have, but it’s a contract that also likely makes him tradeable should the wheels fall off in the next year or two.

The value will still be there to an extent.

I don’t agree , but I see the logic and will give Fletcher credit. It’s a decent deal.

 

[CSKA1974]

 

[SnS]

I’m super shocked about the number.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

Fantastic deal. Didn't think they'd be able to re-sign him for under $8M. Got him at less than what Jake and G are making. Surely he could have squeezed more on the open market but is showing a huge amount of faith and commitment in the organization. Should go a long way in convincing others to re-sign.

 

[bobbythebrain]

We've been Fletched!!

 

[Rebels57]

f***ing A, Charles!!

Jokes aside, not total redemption, but this is an AWESOME extension for our best player and next Captain.

 

[kudymen]

1/10 done well, rejoice and use confirmation + recency biases!

 

[BiggE]

Getting Couts locked up with an aav under 8 million is, by far, the best thing Fletcher has done this summer.

 

[sauce88]

As bad as some parts of the offseason have been at least this contract gives a slight sigh of relief.
