Primal Optimist Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I know your in a rush to be first, but could you put the team in the title for those of us that don't have every one of the 800 NHL players memorized? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyHobo73 Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 How does Duchene get $3.5 million per year and Jones gets $4 million per year? I'm sure term had an influence, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sedin's 6th Sense Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Finally, excellent signing! First young star signing that isn't a 'stupid' one. Myers gets money and long term right away, so does Doughty, Stamkos, Tavares, Karlsson....so much corruption now days in the NHL with teams paying players contracts which they should only get once they're in their prime and have proved to the world they can play at an elite level consistently. Now days NHL is really corrupt for young signings...they just give them the money right after the ELC are up...like this signing a lot cause it's what used to be done before - give a young star player coming off his ELC a 2-3 year deal at a good price and see if he proves he can play consistently. If so by the time the contract is up, then give him them money he deserves, otherwise, stick to short term deals and support the guy. Props to Duchene for not going for the money right away, lots of respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DollarAndADream Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 It's not a rush to be first so much as a rush to get to work by 8, and considering the multiple times he's represented Canada on the world stage and the fact that he's a top 6 RFA forward within our division I assumed he would be in at least your top 100 memorized Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
