Yeah, like Kucherov miraculously appearing healthy just before the playoffs. That's quite the addition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey pulled ahead this year. Its going to be 10.5+ Aho also plays on a team with a more competitive track record over the last few years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was comparable to Petey, he’d be hitting over 100 points each year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Aho has been a number one center on a Conference Finals team twice, has been better then Petey over the last three years BUT Petey was better last year. Sure you can argue that Petey should make a smidget more, but this firmly places him around Aho and below Pasternak, the 60 goal scorer. 8 x 10 million is pretty much set in stone here, let's get it done.

86Viking Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 7 hours ago, aGENT said: Probably Petey's closest comparable. Similar ages, play style and role. Aho has a longer history of high level performance and is probably better defensively, but Petey had a better peak year last year. But it should be close, probably plus a bit once you factor in taxes. thought Barzal was, he got the barzal bridge with an extra 350k. Now he has a 100pt season, barzal got hurt and is signed for 9.15m or something. Going to cost 1m more than Barzal to sign EP. Hopefully not much more, if he is that greedy then he could have the same success as some of those laff players. Players are greedy these days, i get they have short careers but we are talking about millions per year. Us normal folk work year round for 50 years and make a fraction of what some NHL players make in 1 season... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 4 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: Aho had less Selke votes this year than Horvat. Petey had 163 votes, Aho had 5. Petey had 102 points this year, Aho had 67. Plus, Aho has played 2 more years in the league and his numbers have actually regressed. Aho's numbers are trending downward while Petey's numbers are skyrocketing, both offensively and defensively. Petey is literally a top 10 player in the NHL right now. Aho doesn't even make the top 20. Sorry, but I know some of you want Petey to sign some team friendly deal under $10 million, but it ain't gonna happen... I've been anticipating 8 x 11 for quite some time now. He's the one you build around. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawdzukes Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 5 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: Kaprizov got $9 million after one year at 51 points. Jack Hughes got $8 million after one year at 56 points. Both players were signed based on future potential. Same goes with Petey. You can either sign him to $11 million right now or risk having him get 110-115 points next year and maybe winning the Selke trophy and then you are looking at a MacKinnon or Matthews type contract... Too expensive. Trade him for some picks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this goes into the season and he's heading to up his last year total, we only go up from there. I agree. But the thing is , if he really wants 12+, we will be paying 12+.

Let alone someone making Petey type money now let alone his new raise. I ain't greedy, some want the 70m big jackpot...I would be very happy with the $500k extra and pay off my house and use the rest to buy a rental property to provide me with additional income. Then sell it when I want to retire. So, no I don't think that is being greedy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
