Confirmed with Link: Seth Jones, a late 1st, and a 6th for Boqvist, 2 1sts, and a 2nd, and Jones gets a massive extension

[JaegerDice]

The Blackhawks are going to be very bad, for a very long time.

Hope you all have those cup runs saved on DVR.

$8.25 is not great, but it's pretty fair. Now, Jones needs to get his stuff together and be a true #1.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

And if eight years we won’t know for sure until Wednesday?

Existence is pain.

 

[Toews2Bickell]

8.25M per is more likely to be around where he would've been next summer...9.5m per is getting up there with Makar money

 

[CallMeShaft]

Don't worry folks, we got a 6th back. All is now well!

 

[Kevin Musto]

Musto didn’t you hate Boqvist for liking a pro Trump post? lol….

I don't care about Boqvist right now.

I'm afraid of what's attached to Boqvist and that stupid extension.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Lawton is saying 8.25.. Thats still not good but its not 9.5

Lawton is a hack and is almost always wrong

If Seth Jones is the 1D he can be then this is a good trade. Overpaid by 1-1.5 million in my opinion.

I was the biggest Boqvist supporter and i dont like seeing him go but Seth Jones is a bonafide #1 who had a bad season last year on a shit team.

 

[madgoat33]

8 years 76mil. I cant get over it. Even at the best hes ever looked that seems high and hes comin off 2 rough years.

8.25 is still too much but a least closer to realistic.

I just use YouTube

 

[JaegerDice]

This right here.

This is the cold hard truth.

Whatever you think of Seth Jones last few seasons, he has NEVER BEEN a legit elite dman in the NHL, and we just paid him like the reincarnation of Bobby ****ing Orr.

It is like you want him to be wrong…

He's had two bad years in a row and we are also a shit team.

 

[SimpleJack]

So wtf is it 9.5 or 8.25?!?!?!?!?

 

[Toews2Bickell]

there is absolutely no margin for error in that contract...he has to play world class norris caliber hockey for some part of that contract to even get close to justifying it...

 

[Rick C137]

8.25 would actually be fine. 9.5 is not

 

[featherhawk]

better by 8.25 and man I am waiting in fear of what picks are going there way...

 

[I3LI3]

Was rather dominant in Junior hockey as a 17-year-old but hasn't done much since. He has had a few concussions and needs to work on his acceleration. Great shot though and he is only 21 years old in August so has a lot of time to get his NHL game, if he can stay healthy.

thank you bobby!

 

[Toews2Bickell]

i mean he is a former exec so assuming he has some connects and isnt totally spitballing here

Was about to say something similar. Figuring out the 1D for the next 5-6 years feels like a blessing. Now some pressure can fall off of guys like Mitchell and Beaudin.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Basically everyone is saying $9.5 except for one dude.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Absolute truth here

Stanley had to find a way to show that Seabrook deal was from from the worst thing we would see

 

[featherhawk]

This right here.

yup, Seth has regressed the last few years big time and he was never an elite man, he was once on the path to be one however...

 

[Hawkster]

This is a desperate act perpetrated by a collection of morons. Unbelievable.
