TheRussianRocket. Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Good player but wth...the standard down the road with money is going to be ridiculous if Brassard can get $5 mill.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Grimes Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Meh, this will look like a good deal in a couple of years if the cap keeps going up the way it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanTSN Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Guessed $5mil and was bang-on. That's the going rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That's not bad actually. He'll be the 2C there. If a 3C in Bolland can get 5.5 a year, then don't expect 2C's to make under 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayRayDown Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 5m isn't bad for a 2nd C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magician Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So we could have put Schroeder at 2C, signed him for 5 mill per, and it wouldn't be bad because he's a 2C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiggs50 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 That's terrible. Guy hasn't even cracked 50 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.53 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Now they must really believe in him and think he can produce bigger. But still, the guy usually puts up 40-50 points a game, is a hustle player, but doesn't bring that much else as in defense, physical play, the usual stuff like that. But hey, maybe they see something in him we don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So we could have put Schroeder at 2C, signed him for 5 mill per, and it wouldn't be bad because he's a 2C? Brassard is a legitimate 2nd line center though, Schroeder isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Interesting, don't know enlugh about him to decide whether he's over paid. Knowing NY he probably is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpt Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Higgins type numbers, Higgins type role, 5 million... Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayRayDown Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Higgins type numbers, Higgins type role, 5 million... Yikes! Little at 4.7 Ennis at 4.6 Brassard at 5m is okay compared to those to. Only played 15:47 TOI playing behind Richards and Stephan while Higgins averaged 19:01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Interesting perceptions here. Brassard a legit 2C worth 5 million.... Let's try this comparable on for size then..... Bonino vs Brassard Bonino: 2.35 pp60 check 22 goalss check 27 assists even +14 check +2 turnover plus/minus check 48.8% in the faceoff circle check 68 blocked shots check 28 hits 26 years old even 2 x 1.9 million check Brassard 2.11 pp60 18 goals 27 assists even +2 O/even turnover plus/minus 48% in the faceoff circle 19 blocked shots 128 hits check 26 years old even 5 x 5 million Underlying numbers are quite comparable overall with Brassard's relative corsi slightly higher (+4.6 vs -0.5) but getting 60.1% offensive zone starts (and 50.8 finishes) while Bonino had 50.5% ozone starts (and 51.9% finishes) and similar quality of competition - Brassard -0.128 and Bonino -0.055. The two had almost identical percentages of their point production at even strength vs pp (Brassard with about .4% more of his production on the pp at 39.8%). So, contracts aside, Bonino has a comparable edge. Contracts included a very definite edge. If 5 milion is the market value of a player in this range, then people can add about a 6.2 million cap savings over two years to the Canuck's side of the Kesler deal.

EliteROF4 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Not much NYR could do, nobody else could fill in for him as 2C atm. Also don't forget the NTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
