Thank you for Posting it @GordonGraham .

Good signing. Hard working player. Kills penalties and has some offensive upside.

Erect.

Mixed views, think the Jets could've signed him for cheaper. But happy he's committed to the Jets. This contract won't hurt too much.

Whoa didn't know he was back on the jets

 

[alphahelix]

Seems team friendly from here. Strong role player with upside.

Cost us a 4th round pick in 2023 to Seattle to get him back. He didn't seem to be working out there and showed some chemistry on Lowry's wing in the past so it seemed like a relatively low risk move to improve the depth we had last season.

That is a lot of 6’s

Solid signing, can't complain

1 too many for my liking

Do you think on the official Contract Document, they just wrote infinite 6s, or rounded it off like that?

I'd lean more towards 3 years at 6.5M total, with the math done after.

6666 is the number of the super beast. I always asume when you see odd numbers like this that it's done to be in a specific tax-bracket.

 

[Neutrinos]

Appleton is the kind of player that should be making a million or less

 

[LaMasquerade]

Hmm.. about same size, age and production as Trenin.. just wondering is he really half a million "better"?
Personally I haven't been super impressed when I've seen Jets (didn't see any of his Kraken games) during last few years.

 

[Demon Wolf]

Have no further input on the signing other than that Mason Appleton sounds like a ranch owner in a random episode of Little House On The Prairie.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Related to cousin Larry?

 

[Boxertim]

He will be our next Copp…but he wants to be here

 

[BruinsBtn]

I don't know why someone else didn't try to pluck this guy out of Seattle. Only cost the Jets a 4th rounder. I'd take this guy all day long for $2.16m.

That or Appleton really wanted that extra dollar

Yes but Nashville vs Wpg in terms of desirability as cities, most ppl would take Nashville.

Everything over 200k is the same tax bracket in Canada I think
