HomeBrew Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) 5th in voting for the Norris last year. He's overall better than Nurse ($9.25 mil) and a better defender than Makar ($9 mil) in my opinion. I am actually kind of glad that defensemen are starting to get paid. They have been horribly underpriced compared to forwards for some time now. It also makes OEL and TM contracts look a little nicer to boot.

He's a good player, but he's not Hedman. the numbers may not show it to date but this is a top defender in the League in the making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eastern teams, especially American, are going to naturally get more votes. The guys voting aren't staying up and watching western teams play. This isnt new.

If you have ever bothered to watch McAvoy play, he is better than anything we currently have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Well this thread definitely went the way I thought it would. That's a big number for Charlie though, but he's probably worth it. Time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlsson and Doughty set the bar for top UFA D at $11m+ like 3 years ago. One could argue this IS a discount. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure you would complain if we did an 8 year year with Pettersson or Hughes since they'd have a higher cap hit up front. In fact, you already kind of have when you talked about the money of Hughes' 6 year deal. It would have been higher if it were 8 years. Must... Be... Nice...to... complain... about.... everything...

Rasmus Dahlin's contract thread when you claimed that Hughes contract would be not what we'd expect. Then you claimed that people didn't expect it to be as high as it was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
