Fire JBB
Had JBB not burned the bridge with Stammer, we could have had Skinner at 1x3.5 (same agent as 91, probably didn't even wanna talk to JBB and get low alled)
Yeah... exactly that too. I feel like he was trying to sell us on a used car he paid full price but has 80k miles on it already. It's like, dude... he's going to be 30 by opening night? He's not old and yeah he's better than Stamkos right now and in his prime, but that's going to last 3 years....4 maybe until we are circling the "he's too old" wagon again. Like, what?Guentzel will also be 30 when the season starts. He'll be 36 when this 7 year deal is up. So we're not just having him in his prime.
Huge add here. We got PRIME Girgensons!Girgensons at 850k for 3 years is not that bad as a bottom 6 forward.
That sounds like a diseaseHagel - Cirelli - Girgelson should be sick
Jeannot off wishLow risk signing, but for a guy who's supposed to physically gifted with offensive talent, he doesn't provide a lot of offense and is injured a lot.

I'll add that, although it took 3 years to do it, I'm still convinced Mr. Vinik left instruction to buy out Vinny. Which was the final nail in the coffin for me and my emotional attachment to players and I finally embraced the Dark Side of the Business of Hockey. For me, it started when I was absolutely losing my shit over favorites like Ciccone, Myhres, Rudy Po, Darcy Tucker, Zamuner and Andersson were let go. Left wondering what our Japanese Mob Boss' next move was and what duct tape budget Papa Phil could cobble together. And good ol' Art Williams... anywayLastly, he said Vinik did not play an active role in the negotiations. Very much like with Yzerman, Vinik lets his GM be the GM and trusts him to make the right decisions. Only time I think we've ever seen Vinik get involved was when Marty requested his trade and Vinik tried to walk him back off the ledge.
Going to post this replaces Motte but we're on the same song sheetLow risk signing, but for a guy who's supposed to physically gifted with offensive talent, he doesn't provide a lot of offense and is injured a lot.

Are we somehow in better position next year?
That's where Paul was last year anywayHe's one of the few scoring liners left. I don't like him, but if he's cheap we shouldn't say no
Signing him would push Paul to 3C
