sekkes85 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Hopefully a 3 year bridge deal with a modest raise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted maybe what Zaitsev got from the Leafs just 6 years instead of 7. Nice and a good number. Makes Mcdud's deal look even worse......

AJgoal Posted June 9, 2017 Author Share Posted June 9, 2017 I think I like it. Even if he only splits the difference between his rookie and sophomore production, it's a good deal. If he rebounds completely, it's a bargain. And if he's surpassed on the depth chart, it's extremely tradeable. And it ends when he's 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 And there were some who though Ghost was going to get 5+ a year. I was hoping for a bridge deal, but this is a good contract. No complaints here. It's also a very manageable contract should he be surpassed and become available for trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Good deal. Nice to have that locked up. Why would they trade the player the league will rename the Norris Trophy for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJgoal Posted June 9, 2017 Author Share Posted June 9, 2017 Yup. My only hesitation on it is my general distrust of long term contracts. Not anything in particular around this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 I like it.... would prefer it to be a four year deal but not bad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDI-Flyer Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Decent price and term, gives us his prime years and still gives him a chance to get paid in FA if he's as good as we hope he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sekkes85 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Will be a steal if he continues to progress. If he stays the way he did toward the end of the year then still a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not that I'm looking to trade Ghost, but it's great to have that option). This is how long terms deals should be structured. Not having them gain salary over time. (I'm betting on some signing bonus in the up front) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammer2 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Very respectable deal. Like the length, like the cap hit. Has the potential to be outright grand larceny if he returns to his rookie season scoring pace. Another young fast player locked up, nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Good deal in length and cap hit. Agreed with prior posts that structure also makes trades easier. Why do I smell a MacDonald deal after this deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can find him a solid stay at home type partner who will cover him when he ventures into the offensive zone i think he will go far and no by that i don't mean Mcdud.......
