[Signing] Islanders re-sign Casey Cizikas


Recommended Posts

Maybe a little steep, but he has been a consistent part of their team since 2013 season. Baerstchi and Etem have been trying to really establish for a couple of seasons. I think they will probably look for bridge contracts to prove that they can really stick.

True, but a career high of 30 points after averaging 20 points in his previous 3 seasons isn't exactly proving himself as a 3 million dollar player.

 

Dorsett averaging 20 points a season for 2.65 million seems to be fair value if this is the way things are going.

No, Dorsett's contract is atrocious

Not when you consider a 4th liner that kill penalties is worth over 2 million now.

 

Watch this summer what players comparable to Dorsett get and you'll realize this is just the cost of players now. It changes every year after a lockout.

 I agree with the emerging trend of rewarding depth players more proportionately to their cumulative/integrative contributions.

The gap between one dimensional scorers and their team-mates needed/needs to be narrowed imo.

 

Good player.  Very important to the NYI.  I have no criticism of players like this earning better contracts.

So his comparable was Marcus Kruger?  Both play a similar game as key 4th liners for their teams.  Don't like either contract, 4th liners are replaceable regardless of how well they perform in their role.  If the Isles win a cup in the next 5 yrs with Cizikas not being a liability, his payday debate can be ignored.

3 million for 4 points...Yikes what was Chicago thinking there.

 

Even the best GMs sign questionable contracts now and then.

I bet Dorsett's all like "welcome to the club"

Cizikas is in a pretty good club.

The 29 pt club.

For guys with 40% ozone starts.  Generating positive territory.

Fourth liners for linemates. 12 minutes a night.

58 takeaways. +35

150+ hits.

Outscoring the opposition 5 on 5.

That sh!t don't cost 750k anymore - and it shouldn't imo. 

That's the kind of player you win with. 

 

The Honey Badgers gotta get paid.
