Confirmed with Link: Werenski Signs 6 year 9.5 Million AAV Extension

[DJA]

What did that asshat say?

he was 100% sure that Z was going to sign with Detroit as soon as he hit UFA

 

[Halfboard]

I’m absolutely shocked by this……in a real good way

Lmao the entire mains said that over and over again, so funny

 

[CrockyCrock]

My theory was 1000% wrong and I’m very happy about it.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

What did that asshat say?

predicted Z to Detroit months ago

 

[Halfboard]

Wallet as big as the building…..

 

[CBJx614]

You will never get me to believe that little bit extra over 9.5 isn’t a subtle dig at Seth Jones.

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

Don't even care that the cap hit is that high, he's the real deal and staying longterm

 

[CBJ goalie]

I've always been critical of Werenski but I'm damn happy he's staying. We need guys to stay, young talented guy that want to be here. This is the first big signing for us in a long time. Literally every other great player has just walked away, out of all our guys I always thought Zach would be the guy to go. But I guess 9.5 Million is hard to say no to

Well said.
I'm a critic of Z as well - his play seems passive to me sometimes - but there is no doubt he is talented, and now he's going to anchor the CBJ blue line for his prime. Beautiful.

We have a trade to announce

I had a hunch it was good news for us when he canned Brisson

Thanks be to God

Werenski: I’m fine with 57 mil.
Jarmo: Nah, you get 57.5 mil.
ZW: Why?
JK: Because the AAV is more than 9.5…insert troll face.

 

[Long Live Lyle]

When did the Red Wings change their name to Blue Jackets?

 

[Fred Glover]

I had a hunch it was good news for us when he canned Brisson

Will some scribe please ask about the backstory to this? Like, did you fire him cause you wanted to stay in Columbus? Inquiring minds would like to know

 

[Fred Glover]

Werenski: I’m fine with 57 mil.
Jarmo: Nah, you get 57.5 mil.
ZW: Why?
JK: Because the AAV is more than 9.5…insert troll face.

No, cause it’s more than Seth

 

[Fro]

No, cause it’s more than Seth

That's the joke

 

[Fred Glover]

That's the joke

That ain’t no joke

 

[LJ7]

Rather pay Zach this than Seth. Glad it was the better player who wanted to stay.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Not only are his balls bigger than the building, his wallet is too.

 

[Fred Glover]

That's the joke

The posts are coming so fast I can’t keep up

 

[JacketLife]

Too much money, but I’m so glad Jarmo paid the man. I’ve always liked Z more than Jones and thought he’d end up better. Now he just has to get there.
