canuck73_3 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Bet he was diving all over the place to ink that deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Yeah he was good in the playoffs, but he hasn’t done enough to warrant that high salary. Was expecting 4.5-5 for 2-4 years truthfully, more of a show me deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaku Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Good lord. Esa better be giving his agent a raise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonMexico Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Not a terrible deal really. Seems steep but they have him locked in until 30 so he is foregoing free agency which is likely a big factor in the AAV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Stecher’s agent must be happy for negotiating an extension in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 30 points, 24 minutes a game, 161 blocks, 143 hits. Doesn't take care of the puck it seems. 92 giveaways to 30 takeaways. Not sure he warrants a near 6mil contract. But hey, if that's what Dallas thinks is best by all means. I don't watch enough Dallas games to know how valuable he is to the team. Seems like a bit too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 A little steep imo. He's good and probably worth at least 5, but I'm not sure 5.8 for that long is the right move for Dallas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 24, so maybe he improves his offensive totals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlastPast Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Seems like a lot but you have to keep in mind that the cap could very well be at ~100M going into that final year. At that point 5.85 for your #3 defenseman (where he probably ends up ) will be good value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably means Stecher’s agent can reasonably come in with a $5 million ask on a long term deal and settle for $4.5 or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindell played 24:20 ATOI last year (mostly against top competition), Stecher played 19:55 (only against top competition while Tanev was hurt). Lindell has proven to be a great #2/3 D-man on a playoff team. Stecher has only proven to be a decent #3/4 D-man on a bottom-feeder. At this point, Stech will probably cost around $4M, on a shorter term (3-4 year) deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindell plays on a good team with a partner who has regularly been in Norris contention and is one of the true #1 D in the league. Stecher plays with.... Hutton. Lindell when not with Klingberg hasn’t shown to be able to carry a pairing. He is better than Stecher, but not drastically better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
