This is a deal. if we can get him and Heineken for under $20M that is better than I expected. $8.4 Million gets you a LOT of beer. You can buy a brewery for that.

It’s not a stretch to compare with the last GM. Don’t know why this is so off base It’s called humour laugh It’s good for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bardown Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 10 minutes ago, WHL rocks said: I don't think I'd feel comfortable having you as my agent. Pettersson " I wanna wait until summer" Bardown " he's in a rush to sign a contract" Customer " I'm looking for a ski lodge in Colorado " Bardown " I found that beach front property you're looking for in Florida " When did I say he’s in a rush? I said Dhali said he wasn’t coming to the table and the Canucks were “very frustrated” that’s literally what Dhali said you then defend that putz when the clearly none of it was true as per todays signing and press conference I don’t think you know what you’re even arguing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBatch Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Good news. Damned if we didn't. So best to give it a go. For all those worried about the future. Let's be in the present and enjoy that. At least there won't be any more contract distractions. This is about keeping the team together. The best part about the bridge always about, keeping EP in house for his entire prime. Thank JB, or grieve about that and this deal when the times right. Certainly isn't right now. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really thought him and Petey would have had chemistry and they still might, fingers crossed Ya why can’t they figure it out… didn’t they play on a line during the World Cup? Or something?

Hammertime Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 12 minutes ago, spook007 said: I agree amigo. But whats the tax in Colorado. Not sure why Mac signed such a sweetheart deal there, but its more a case of Mac playing well above his contract, just like Miller does. However Macs ontracts goes on until he is 36 at least ( so maybe because of expected reduction in production at the later part of his contract)... Mac should be up there with McD and Matthews. The way I understand it is the taxes are paid based on where the games are play'd maybe someone who knows this stuff can clarify. So while the difference is 53.09% vs 41.06% when the dust settles the take home difference is maybe 700ish K on 11.6m? I'm foggy on it though so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His own words were he wanted to wait until the summer... lt got to a point where they were talking trade with Carolina. And had to tell the kid sign or we're trading you...

DeNiro Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) Really happy that the media vultures won’t get to circle this summer. I’m sure they were already busy concocting new rumours and conjuring up more BS. Oh and poor Elliotte will be out of content for his 32 “thoughts”.

Frozen Water Walker Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 57 minutes ago, Barnstorm said: Good thing FA replaced the management and in turn the coaching when he did. Another year of Benning and his coach’s could have decimated this group. I wasn't so much of a FA fan the last # of years, but this move and a complete reno of a now first class facility for the players has been great.

Joe King Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 46 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Gotta wonder if the pressure came because they have a deal in place for a player with term or a sign and trade. Obviously not having Petey locked in long term would affect their strategy moving forward. I guess we’ll see. I think this as well. Now they know where the stand with Petey and can move forward accordingly. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 9 minutes ago, KesLord said: Can anyone confirm that we signed the correct Elias Pettersson to this contract? If we just gave this money to the Defensemen Elias Pettersson, then Alvin has made a massive mistake. Remember the Leafs did that a few years ago ??? Signed the wrong player to a huge contract. Can't remember the player.. maybe someone can refresh my memory... It was hilarious.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
