WHL rocks Posted Monday at 04:35 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:35 PM Love this signing.. Very good player. Plays the way Tocchet likes his players to play. Does all the things you want a player to do.. 27 yrs old 6ft 196lbs. Great deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna be a keeper and that AAV is fantastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BPA Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:36 PM One of the guys I was hoping to get. A bit higher cap hit and term. But it’s FA, so need to pay a bit more anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Well we did something. 5.5M is not a bad AAV but man 7 years is long. If it doesn't work out this is another potential buy out contract. Need to see if there's NMC and the contract structure. As for the player, I only know he requested to be traded but eventually redeemed himself a bit. Is it truly the right fit for Petey? We can only trust our pro-scouting on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteyBoeser Posted Monday at 04:36 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:36 PM We said no to 6 years of Zad but 7 years ok to him!? I’m so disappointed 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted Monday at 04:37 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:37 PM Better than signing Skinner for anything. Fills a big need. Tocch needs PFs for his system to work and Pettey needs a digger on his wing. Better than signing a smallish winger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeanSeanBean Posted Monday at 04:37 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:37 PM I'm gonna reserve judgement. Not familiar enough with his game. But I trust Toc to get the best out of him. Consistent 40-50 point guy over his career with size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
