Good for him. He's legitimately earned it.

Now I just hope GMCF forces him to get a special teams coach too.

 

[TaLoN]

He deserves it... get this deal done, then find someone to coach up the PP.

 

[Lapa]

He earned it. Good news for sure.

Church of Yeo!

 

[Avder]

Oh god don't bring that back

 

[Northland Wild Man]

I say 7 years 56M. If he wants more we should let him walk.

Yeo or Vanek?

Because there's no chance Yeo gets that kind of a contract.

I smell sarcasm in that post but...

3yrs - $4-5m tops.

I think it will be along the lines of 3yrs- $3m with bonuses for advancing through the playoffs.

Bonuses count towards the total value, was already including them in my $4-5m numbers.

Were you talking about Vanek and posted in the wrong thread?

 

[TZM]

He should get the term and money of wild card spot + 7 won playoff games. Shouldn't be much.
I'm afraid of another rollercoaster ride. I really want to see some continuum in his game plans.

Something along these lines would be fine. I still have fears about inconsistency as others have pointed out.

So when the wild struggle this year I better not hear a bunch of ppl hating on yeo. I think Russo said roughly a million per yr

^it will happen though, always does. Wild fans are so damn up and down.

Mike Yeo signed to an extension

Church of Yeo, everybpdy!

Well deserved. Hopefully he builds off this solid season.

 

[MK9]

I was on his side for most of the year. I went over the edge at one point during the year. Which is pretty unlike me to give up on someone until the last possible minute. But I was done with him. Glad they were able to right the ship and he's made some great strides in his own development as a coach. Look forward to seeing how much further he can get this team.

 

[Billy Mays Here*]

I'm not the biggest Yeo fan but he's earned this whether we like it or not.

 

[Avder]

Eager to see what he does with the team next season.

 

[Paul Bunyan]

Glad to see this done. If this had gone south this postseason and everything had been blown up I think this team would have lost its window perhaps.

Now it's still open and can be built upon. Let's hope they do it.

 

[Northland Wild Man]

He earned the extension. Now let's work on the consistency.

 

[AJ Thelen]

Good for him.

Now, stop the constant linechanges and find yourself a PP coach. Thanks
