Gaudette Celly Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 He'll only be 29 at the end of it, with likely still years of prime-time left. Quote "Erik is an important part of our team and provides a physical element to our blueline," said Benning. "His leadership qualities help us as we continue to integrate younger players in our lineup. He is a quality person, a great teammate, outstanding in the community and we are excited to have him as part of our team moving forward." Get that man an "A" -- make HFBoards go thermo-nuclear.

FijianCanuck Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 They had no choice but to sign him. Given what they paid to acquire him and the fact they weren't getting anything close to what they paid to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Marchand Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 A $500K raise with short term and no NTC for a pending UFA is probably as well as management could have done here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Well done Jimbo... solid cap hit. Similar to the contract he handed out to Sbeezus. Is there any NTC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenbean30 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 2 minutes ago, Rush17 said: Is that 3 million against the cap in his final year or is that how its paid out each year with the same AAV? 3 million in his final year would be great for cap flexibility as we hit our cup window. Cap will be 4mill, he will just be paid 3mill for the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have at least got more term if he went UFA, possible NTC, and probably up to $4.5mil AAV as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap has to be even every year so Its 4 mil all 3 years. This does make it easier to trade him in year 3 if we are unsatisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 As one who started the 'hockey net' thread, I'm even MORE pleased with this. I thought we'd have to go deep(on $ or term) hat-tip to Mr Gud for accepting with this very reasonable compromise. After MacEwan & Archibald..maybe one more tough hombre, & no one will **** with our youth. Congratz to EG. Show then HF ****'ers what ya got!

No 4M AAV for the 3 years , just a better financial hit in the final year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
