jsm7302 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 I'm 100% for this signing for under 5 mil. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 Yup. Solid is the best way to describe it. Perfect amount of runway to see if he can reproduce, at a number that can't hurt you too much if he doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Love this contract. fair value for sure. If he can repeat that production its a steal for two years. if he can't, it's not the worst contract in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Perfect indeed. Gorton brought in this guy and Zibanejad for Ryan Spooner and Brassard. Nice return. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keirik Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Bargain. Really is. For this money I wish we went three years at like 4.8 or so. Very surprised he didn’t go to arb. Think he would have gotten more. Sounds like we have a good thing going especially culture wise here. Imagine that? Taking a bit less money than market in NYC?

BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Perfect indeed. Gorton brought in this guy and Zibanejad for Ryan Spooner and Brassard. Nice return. lol add in the fact that Ottawa also ADDED a 2nd round pick unfortunately, that pick helped us land Brendan Smith. TBF it was a good pickup at the time and he played well in those playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't know why he wouldn't, he's found a fantastic line mate who will no doubt make him very rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pretty much split the difference between his arb ask and Rangers offer, so likely wouldn't have gotten more in arb. He gets the second year guaranteed money, and avoids the ugliness of arb case.

He gets the second year guaranteed money, and avoids the ugliness of arb case. I was pretty worried arb wise. I know they usually split the difference sort of but still. He was on point for 70+ points or so there was a chance he got closer to 5m. The second year was pretty important team wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he would have gotten more. Sounds like we have a good thing going especially culture wise here. Imagine that? Taking a bit less money than market in NYC? My translation is that Strome sees where this team is headed in a few seasons and wants to continue here...After those 2 years run out, he'll also see where this soon-to-be diesel train of a franchise is going. I like this idea and the whole Gorton/JD combo looks to be well in tune with "The Plan"!!! Good news. Ok, drop the puck. I've been so damn bored lately, RG!! I miss these games more than a fat kid misses chocolate munchkins!!! I think he enjoys NYC. And I don't know why he wouldn't, he's found a fantastic line mate who will no doubt make him very rich. He may just end up being the 2nd or 3rd line center of this squad while we compete for a cup in a few seasons, 31!!! I'm pretty psyched they got this one done correctly and for a good amount that's fair to both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Yes, good for both sides. The Rangers get a reasonable price without being locked in for too long. Strome gets time to build up his credentials playing with Panarin before coming up for UFA. Very sensible for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
