DrJockitch Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Wow! That is cheap. He is really good and just coming into his own. Must be straight to UFA years or makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucklehead44 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 He would probably get over 7 million in the open market. New York pre cap was able to sign anyone because they had so much money now guys play there for pennies on the dollar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I can not recall but I believe this takes him to within 1 year of being a UFA or might actually put him out as a UFA. While a sweetheart deal for sure for what he is doing and how he is progressing, it also means he has control over his destiny moving forward as he would have a single year of RFA status left or be an outright UFA. On a deal that is very easily moveable. Double edged signing for the Rags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Obviously a bridge deal, so it's cheap. He'll get paid big time after this if he continues to do well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Extremely cheap, even for a bridge deal. He knows he's about to come into his prime and get paid big-time afterwards. NYR would have been wise to throw a long term deal his way but maybe they were worried about the risk of it (for example 7x5 or 6M). He's big, physical, plays top pairing minutes all over the ice and dropped 40+ points last year so look out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a deal that is very easily moveable. Double edged signing for the Rags he has played 3 years and this is a 2 year deal. So he has two more years to UFA. I guess he is betting on himself to keep playing better and then cash in on an 8 year deal in 2 years... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 In two years the cap should have risen too. (Although I'll believe that when I see it ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Very friendly bridge deal. Considering what Gavrikov got. Wants to stay in NY and did them a solid. I always try steal him in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be straight to UFA years or makes no sense. Everyone is signing shorter deals banking on the cap going up, I assume. A trend I hope continues, but surely wont 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontaylorforprez Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Damn, I was kind of hoping we’d take a flyer on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby James Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Man I'd love to get K'andre on our team. Big, good skater and can play in both ends. I wonder if there could be a trade for him eventually if NYR can't get the cap freed up in time for him. Unfortunately, in two years we have the biggest chunk of the OEL penalty in effect, so would be hard for us too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
