Popular Post Penskih Posted November 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2021 31 points last year and now signed 8X8. A little early for that, no? They must really believe in him 1 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Provost Posted November 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2021 Wow that is just a terrible signing. He hasn't earned half that. He probably won't ever live up to that even in his prime. 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Too much money, but that is a team that can rely on the League bailing them out, so if it goes wrong Big Daddy Bettman will save them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) I know Pettersson hasn't been performing but I'd much rather have his deal. At least he earned his current contract, and it's short enough that we can re-evaluate his value later on.

Popular Post EternalCanuckFan Posted November 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2021 Jack Hughes may live up to that contract but yikes. Paying for potential has risen to a whole 'nother level. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 High risk, high reward. Will either be a bargain or an albatross by the end of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tower102 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 How on earth does he get that. I can't even imagine the agent using that as a starting point. They really think he is going to turn it around and didn't want to bridge and then pay more I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying for potential has risen to a whole 'nother level. Yeah a bridge would have been the prudent move... Given they play in the Prudential Center. he is there all American star though. I see why they did it. With salary caps likely on the rise in a few years that contract could turn out to be great value of he can play to the value of that contract during the cap freeze.

CanuckinEdm Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 45point pace last year and gets 8mil. I'll take Draisaitl at 500k more lol. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I’m a believer in his talent, but that still does seem risky going 8x8 when Hughes hasn’t really proven (yet) to be a truly elite talent at the NHL level. I think he’ll get there, and the deal will be okay longterm, but I’d probably have punted short term and reevaluated later down the road, as far as going max term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 LOL... he's done jack shet in the NHL compared to Quinn but he's getting paid more... maybe he's got the face to sell products in New Jersey?? I'm not sure how the current salary cap can be sustaninable when teams just throw $$$ around like that.... while decent veterans who can put up 25-40 pts have to settle for $850k - $2M....

Popular Post stawns Posted November 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2021 this league needs to check itself on salaries soon. There needs to be some kind of incremental raise system for a player prior to UFA status in place or the league is in serious trouble 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
