Popular Post ArmchairGM22 Posted June 18 Popular Post Share Posted June 18 He’s only 26 and is going to keep getting better playing with Quinn and coaching from Gonchar and Foote, with a rising cap this deal will age very well 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devron Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 4 minutes ago, -AJ- said: How this ages will depend a lot on how he plays--which admittedly is like saying water is wet, but we saw two very different Hroneks this year. 1st Half Hronek was worth $8M. Second half Hronek was worth $5M. We'll see which one we get. That said, with the length of the contract and the ever rising cap, this will likely seem like a pretty solid deal in the years to come. Despite the length, he'll still be just 34 at the end of this deal, so not too old and should still be capable. I think the production dropped for a lot of players after the all star break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... this is what the result is. Can't believe people don't understand how a negotiation works. as per your signature... you nailed on your prediction for this contract now i hope you're wrong on Zadorov prediction and he signs for 5 not 5.75 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of our players production dropped off in the second half. I don't know if anyone remembers the mini slump we went into. We were cheating for offence and Tocchet had to get the guys to get back to defensive hockey. Way less blowouts and more one goal games. That's obviously going to affect offensive stats.

Dr. Crossbar Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 The real value is in the Hughes/Hronek pairing. That's the magic. I'm confident over time Hronek will be better carrying his own line if need be with Foote and Gonchar's mentoring. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Scott72 Posted June 18 Popular Post Share Posted June 18 This management group is phenomenal. I like how they are setting culture in the system not just in the dressing room among players but also in terms of salary. This is what good organizations that go for cup runs and stay competitive for multiple years do and have done in the past. Examples are Boston & Pittsburgh. Good on organization by setting the bar of "You can earn more on some other team but on this team, you cannot earn more than our best defence man aka captain of this team". 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can put up 50 points and be solid defensively, I'm happy with this deal. If he can channel more of 1st half Hronek and get to 60-70, I'll be thrilled. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF the Canucks sign Zadorov, I see it having to come under $5.5M. We can't afford $5.75M for Zadorov. Lindholm is as good as gone. I'd be surprised if Joshua returned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeanSeanBean Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Right on, totally ok with this. Right from the gitgo I was saying he couldn't earn more then Hughes, and he didn't. Now save up and sign JG. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the players have been talking to the UFA’s as well urging them to take a discount to stay. The team wants to stick together, which helps and also suggests its a tight group, which you always need to win a cup 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
