Confirmed Signing with Link: [WPG] Jets re-sign Kyle Connor (7 years, $7.142857M AAV)

[BusQuets]

Said over 7 per

HOLY OVER PAYMENT. Should be 7.1 or something to not be terrible.

 

[PensandCaps]

Laine has the potential to be the best goal-scorer in the game if he can put it all together though. Big if, obviously.

Connor is a much better overall player at the moment and the better much 5v5 scorer.


things could change, though

 

[BatVader]

Annual cap hit incoming:

1 billion dollars!

Actually around that

 

[PensandCaps]

Basedon last year yes. Not compared to Laine’s first 2 seasons but very close.

even Laines 2nd year.
Connor was the better player at 5v5.

 

[PensandCaps]

Not better... more rounded but not better

so..
better

6.75 is fantastic, 7.1 is ok, 7.25 is terrible

:Sarcasm:

I don't doubt it. But Laine's release is unreal. And I think people see that and salivate over what he might be, as early as this coming year.

 

[jetsfan91]

Back to back 30 goal seasons, nearly 70 points last season, and only 22 years old. I love this deal! It will be considered a steal in a couple of years.

 

[BusQuets]

so..
better

Koivu is more rounded player than Laine. Is he better? meh...

 

[MardyBum]

Fair deal. Happy it's all over finally.

 

[PensandCaps]

I don't doubt it. But Laine's release is unreal. And I think people see that and salivate over what he might be, as early as this coming year.

i mean the dude scored 18 goals in a Month.

18!

but as a jets fan his game pisses me off.

 

[North]

Koivu is more rounded player than Laine. Is he better? meh...

Connor is better than both. Better?

 

[PhilJets]

Lets.go.

Now all they need is Buff..

 

[PensandCaps]

Koivu is more rounded player than Laine. Is he better? meh...

No. because connor is a better offensive player than Laine aswell as defensively.

Koivu is only better defensively.


connor is a more rounded offensive player AND defensive player than Laine

You're a Jets fan, with a Crosby avatar, named PensandCaps?

 

[BusQuets]

Koivu is only better defensively.

Koivu is better on offensive draws too.

Thats just not true, connor just gets the best usage....

2nd team

 

[PhilJets]

Laine is far better player than connor in the playoff.
Not even close.
While the older guy plays with the top7 C and top 5C.

Anyways these 2 plays for 1 team.

All is good for me...

 

[jetsforever]

Awesome, good to lock him up and end this long saga

 

[PensandCaps]

Thats just not true, connor just gets the best usage....

i love this excuse for laine. lol. as he floats on the ice.

his problem is effort not usage.

laine gets much more PP usage than Connor.

 

[Deedog99]

Good contract and easily tradeable in years 5 or 6 if needed

 

[heilongjetsfan]

Better player than Laine but many people dont wanna admit it.

The people who watch them play?
