Wow, JJ has had a banner day.
Didn't see this coming at all.

This is awesome. Extremely happy to have him back. He was fantastic in the playoffs.

That’s it. That’s the post.

 

[Mr McV]

Well, this pretty much blows away my expectations for July first.
Well done Mr. Jackson.

I wonder what his usage will be next season. At least we can confidently say (please don't let this post age like milk like most of my predictions) that we have some of the best competition within our top 6 in the NHL.

I am actually quite surprised by this. Kudos to Mrs Rico for willing to put her nice Cali life on hold for a bit for her husband to continue to chase his dream. She's a keeper, helps that she's from Canada and comes from a hockey family.

Add me to the list of those ordering Jackson crow.

Initially thought that he was strictly a "keep McDavid happy" hire when he first came onboard. But can't argue with his performance thus far.

Now if he can just do something about Ceci (maybe even Nurse), that would take things from perfect to miraculous.

 

[Oilhawks]

You could tell Rico was loving it here during the playoffs. He was all business as a guy who had been there before, but the looks of pure enjoyment crept through.

He wants to win, and came back to do so. LFG!

Wrong thread..

Happy to see him back.

 

[TheGingaNinja]

Wow, gotta love it. Our depth is borderline obscene now. What a day!

 

[McDrai]

Jeff Jackson put in some serious work today. Highly impressed. Brought back the stud line!

He's a baller. Definitely could have got 4 million

Love players like this, could have been you Bjugstad.

OMG, this can't be real. lol. After all the other forward signings, I was convinced AM was gone for sure.

 

[McDoused]

Trading that 1st round looks pretty good right now.

 

[Victor000]

All these guys wanting to come back for less money because they know the job's not finished. Literally brings tears to my eyes.

Darn rights it does

Thought the same with Garlic

 

[29Beast97Mode]

That's what good teams get. Players who could sign elsewhere yet choose to sign for less to win.

 

[Oilhawks]

Trading that 1st round looks pretty good right now.

Yup, traded it for 2 additional years of Rico at a ridiculously good cap hit

Also a 4th for 2 additional years of Stecher at basically a free cap hit

Pretty damn good

That’s it. That’s the post.

My wife approves of this signing

You notice that Seravalli said that the forward group was finished, "for now"? No way, right?

 

[FlameChampion]

$3m x 2 is an insane contract. I mean Wennberg got $5 x 2 and Henrique is a better player. He took like 2+ mil a year discount and who knows how many years. Monahan got 5 years… like Jesus. Rico really wants a cup.

A re-up for Leon and I'll sleep like a baby for the rest of the summer.
