Chris12345 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I put this guy in the overrated camp. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 I think he and his agent have an overinflated view of what he’s worth. Bergevin is hoping that seeing what’s available in free agency will bring his ark back in line with what he’s willing to offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizzas of his choice This is the type of offers Bergevin is hoping Danault's camp is going to receive, so that HE can sign Danault for this sort of a deal. Montreal has better pizzas than Vancouver (I'm a pizza connoisseur, and I've had pizzas in both cities - it's the restaurant grade Saputo cheese you get in Montreal that makes the big difference). IMHO, Danault peaked in 2018-19/2019-2020 and is now on the backside of his career. It would be a mistake chasing players in their late 20s hoping they have a few more years at their peak. EDIT: I overstated my pizza "expertise"...for the record, I am a Wannabee-Pizza-Connoisseur. Chicken Wings, on the other hand, are a whole other topic. I would make John Garrett look like an amateur. Best wings I've ever had: Anchor Bar in Buffalo, where the Buffalo wings were invented by a nice little Italian lady.

Pizzas of his choice He can't be signed to a bonus laden contract........maybe pizzas don't count though. Not all players are eligible for Performance Bonuses, and to receive a bonus within their contract, a player must meet one of the following criteria: The player is on an entry-level contract. The player has signed a one-year contract and is over 35 years old. The player has signed a one-year contract after returning from a long-term injury (has played 400 or more games, and spent 100 or more days on the Injured Reserve in the last year of their most recent contract). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I was totally joking. A team is going to pay for this guy. Canucks should steer clear. Do appreciate the reply and the info. Didn’t know about 3.

qwijibo Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 I won’t be surprised to see him circle back to Montreal and them overpay slightly. There’s already francophone politicians making a big deal about the fact that the Habs don’t have a francophone player on the roster atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownky Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 He's gonna get paid after the playoffs he had. Unfortunately, like 'contract year' performances, I doubt it gets a long term repeat. Somebody is going to get fleeced paying this guy for two-three years too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) The guy had 24pts in 53gms in the regular season and 4pts in 22 playoff games. Why exactly does he think he can command over $5M AAV??? His production in the playoffs was in line with elite defenceman Zach Whitecloud. Edited July 16, 2021 by HKSR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shutdown forwards that don't produce offensively, especially in the playoffs, do not deserve more than $3M AAV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Wouldn’t mind him in the 2.5 to 3 million per season range….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
