Say anything you want about all of these deals, including Kreids, Bread, Shesty, Goodrow, Mika and Trouba - but at least there is cost certainty for some time.

This is the core we have going forward. No choice but to buy into it as the cap equalizes itself after the time lost to Covid.

Good, bad or indifferent there is less and less uncertainty the more core players you lock up. As the buyouts come off the books things will become more clearer for the future of the cap landscape.

It also makes it very clear to the agents of Kakko and Laf, Miller and the rest of the young kids that there will only be a finite amount of space if they want to be a part of this team going forward.

It would behoove this team to make it to the dance and make some noise in the playoffs so they want to be a part of something special going forward.

A double edged sword for sure because those young players will have to play well to get there

Isn’t that always the case?

I’m not going to complain. Looking forward to seeing what’s best for Fox. I don’t even think he’s hit his ceiling yet.

Just frustrating that a team like Colorado has arguably better players (at least at forward) on such better contracts.

Meanwhile we are here saying we actually can’t afford to pay Kakko if he breaks out, yet don’t even have a playoff team to show for it.

Darnell Nurse @ 8 x 9.25M -or-
Adam Fox @ 7 x 9.5M

I think our deal looks pretty efffffffffffinfantastic.

Imagine if he got better at PKing

Dude would break the space time continuum

 

[JohnC]

I remember when people were all butthurt we gave up a second and a third for him.

Shut up idiot. We could’ve drafted Norris winning defensemen with those picks.

 

[mas0764]

None of these deals look bad in a vacuum. The problem is a bunch of average deals in vacuums is cumulatively bad. You’ve gotta get some positively good ones.

Not that this isn’t a fine deal but we hear the same thing every time we sign one of these guys: well this deal isn’t bad.

This is actually a pretty good/good deal for the Rangers. I mean, the guy did win the Norris trophy and a comparable, Makar, signed for 9M and a year less than Fox. This contract will age well as long as Fox is consistent and there's no reason to think he won't be.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Between Mika and Fox taking less (and they did), that will be enough together to fit in a valuable depth piece a few seasons down the road, or help retain a youngen that actually plays up to their draft position.

its not a ton, but it adds up to something

 

[Machinehead]

Considering an AHL dman got paid $9M long term this summer, this is a steal

LMAO Death Jones

 

[Filthy Dangles]

LMAO Death Jones

Darnell Hearse

I wish Igor was signed longer

Tbh it's probably actually DeAngelo

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

That's just a moronic statement. If you paid him 14.5m that would be the worst contract in hockey.

If you couldn’t tell that was clearly a joke than I think we need to rethink who the moron is in this situation.

Twitter is what happened when some jackass said "What if we made the comments section a social media site?" and it took off.

A cesspool of the absolute worst and most idiotic of humanity.

 

[Machinehead]

News to put a smile on your dial.

Wut

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

The amount of people on Twitter acting like this is an overpay is hilarious to me. I’m shocked that it’s almost entirely islanders fans and Devils fans.

9.5x7 is a hometown discount, let’s get that out of the way right now. After what Jones and Nurse signed for, Fox would’ve been completely justified asking for 11 per and he would’ve been worth it. Makar got 9 but only for 5 years. Fox at 9.5 is worth every penny and then some. McAvoy signed basically the same contract, Fox wasn’t going to sign for less. He literally just won the Norris trophy last season. Worth every penny.

Wish we would slap the C on him tomorrow night.

"The announcement of Adam Fox signing a long term deal with the Rangers is the type of information offering that make you express joy through upturned lips and and pleased expression on your face..."

Better?

Yes!

 

[Leonardo87]

Had to post my gifs all together, sorry, lol. Anyway was just saying the other day where would this team be without Fox and Shesty, wouldn’t be a winning record, imo. These guys have become the foundation to what will build onto a competitive window for years to come. So happy, and got his jersey on opening day!!

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

If any fan wants to knock this deal they haven’t watched Fox play enough, simple as that.

 

[broadwayblue]

I remember when people were all butthurt we gave up a second and a third for him.

I thought it was two seconds? Even better deal!

 

[aufheben]

When was the last time the Rangers gave someone this much money and there was zero concern over how it would age?
