Confirmed Signing with Link: [VGK] Alex Tuch signs extension with Vegas (7 years, $4.75M AAV)

[gwh]

He'd be the best player on the Minnesota Wild.

Not even outscoring dumba per game basis... Maybe in top6

He'd be the best player on the Minnesota Wild.

Haha umm what? Not even close.

 

[Corvus Corax]

Heck of a player and looks like it is going to be a great contract.
McPhee has done a few things that have made me scratch my head, but this was never one of them. Good job.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Haha umm what? Not even close.

"Not even close" Yeah, sure. Because Minnesota is loaded with upper echelon and elite players....

Ok, I'll put it a different way. If I had a choice between Alex Tuch and selecting any player on the Minnesota roster for my team, I would take Alex Tuch....it'd be close between he and Granlund but Tuch is showing me he has the higher ceiling and I think shortly it will be clear he's a more impactful player if he isn't already.

He'd be the best player on the Minnesota Wild.

Embarrassing post. No he wouldn't.

Between this and the El Nino disaster it just shows how royally screwed you are when the rest of the NHL knows you're out of options. The other GMs will just let you suffocate until you end up making a mistake.

Things only going in 1 direction in Minny

And that would be really dumb but go for it.

Ok man. You are silly. I mean there are 4 dmen alone you take over Tuch on the wild roster.

Oh dear, rantanen is gonna get 10.

Or, the cap-structure would be such that his final year salary is $10M+. Either way, Rantanen is getting paid.

 

[Sam Spade]

Yeah they should have bridged him 1-2 years and paid 6.5m for him down the road...



yes Vegas locked up their #1W, their #1D, and their #3D to reasonable long-term deals and re-signed one of the hottest goalies in the league. But Mcphee tho. I think 'McPhee gonna McPhee' might have a new meaning since he built the SC winning Capitals and the SCF Golden Knights.

Tuch at under 5m is looking pretty damn good right now with cap projections and increasing RFA salaries.

Ross Mahoney built the Capitals, McPhee stepped up to the podium and picked Alex Ovechkin.
