[Signing] Avalanche re-sign Samuel Girard


Recommended Posts

Roll them dice early I guess.  I imagine they are hoping he continues to trend and this contract looks good in hindsight.  He was really good offensively in junior - so so in the NHL thus far. His advanced stats are not that good.

They bought some UFA years so it cost more in term/dollar but it's a bit of a risk still that he continues to get better and grow into that contract.   

 

Avs are in an interesting position as a franchise.   Everyone knows they're on the rise - how long can Sakic keep that core together before the inevitable 'cap' comes calling.   That bargain Mack contract is sure looking sweet these days.

Not that I think Stetcher warrants a contract like this as he's 4 years older and closer to a finished product, but you'd have to think his agent will be asking north of $4M annually on an extension. His stats were comparable Girard last year.
