Coconuts Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Huh, gotta wonder if that means they view him more as their long-term 1C and have decided Barzal is more of a top six wing That would make sense, Barzal isn't terribly strong on the draws and is more of a puck distributor anyway Lot of coin though, good for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People here want to b**** & complain about not keeping him, but this is way too much!! Given all we’ve heard the last year(ish), part of me feels he wanted to move on. And, to be clear, I’m not Knocking Bo…he’s one of my favourite players. Have his jersey and all of that. I just wonder who pressured Lou to give that contract? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was about the money he would have just gone to free agency and made more from the highest bidder. This seems like the opposite. A team believed in him enough to trade for him, so he felt an obligation to sign a deal. He wasn’t getting 8 years in free agency though. And he wasn’t getting much more than 8.5. Don’t kid yourself this was about getting max dollars. 1 7 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a case to be made that he's actually improved and could be more of a 60-70 point guy for the next two or so years. All that said, I'm still not certain he's worth that money. Eight years for that much dough is a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Odd. Posted February 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2023 Miller’s contract doesn’t seem so bad now. A PPG player the last 4 years and is coming off a 100 point season and will be making less than a career 50-60 point center. 5 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, but his agent was being greedy a f and he shouldn’t have got that, but he found a desperate gm and licked the f out as far as I see it.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Good for Bo. Deserves every dollar he gets in that deal. Outstanding human beimg and player. Securing his family's future and perhaps a few generations. He will get a good opportunity in Long Island to compete in next few years. NYI clearly showed they wanted him and is choosing to honor that. Management clearly didnt make him a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
