Confirmed Signing with Link: [ANA] Rakell re-signs w/Anaheim (6 years, $3.8M AAV)

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Nice contract, we now wait for the other shoe to drop. Still deals to be made out there.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

He is a few weeks from being able to play, so they can probably IR him while they deal with the cap

There isn't anything on the cap to deal with until they get an agreement out of Lindholm. They're under the cap with this deal and him going straight to IR won't change anything else really since they had 23 before the signing.

 

[Canada4Gold]

solid deal for the Ducks. Not sure how they're going to get Lindholm signed though. Interesting times ahead

 

[Willy Stylez]

Very good deal.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Is he worth that?

Worth 40% more than that.

Absolutely a steal.

 

[Hurricane Hugo]

I'm so ****ing happy about this. Excellent contract.

 

[Benedict Kovalchuk]

Not bad.

On another note, does this guy's name remind anyone of Rochelle Rochelle from Seinfeld? Literally the first thing that comes to mind when I hear this guy's name.

 

[Prntscrn]

What does this mean? That he'll average 3,8 per season or that he'll get it over 6 years? Per season I guess?

 

[kducks]

So happy with this deal. I almost like you again Murray, almost.

 

[BruinLVGA]

Worth 40% more than that.

Absolutely a steal.

Worth $5.32m per? That would have been steep, if you ask me.

 

[Fighter]

Great deal, well done Bob!

 

[Unholy]

Awesome. For 6 years that is a good number. Now work some magic and get Lindholm signed.

 

[mightyquack]

What does this mean? That he'll average 3,8 per season or that he'll get it over 6 years? Per season I guess?

3.8m per season (AAV).

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Yay...

I consider him our most creative forward, and I think the contract is very good... he's on of those players who's kinda good at everything, very versatile.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Great deal for the Ducks.

 

[Arthuros]

We really need the help up front. Now BM can take his time with Lindholm and attempt to backpedal out of the Thing 2 and Thing 3 contracts...

 

[GJB]

does Etem get pushed back onto waivers?

 

[caliamad]

If you wanted rakell on a long term deal it's good but personally I don't think it's wise to commit so much to a player had half 1 good year.

Lindholm is another matter and I'd give 6 years without thinking.

 

[leafsrock67]

Wow, great patience by Murray leads to a great deal. In a few years that's gonna look great. In fact it is a good deal now too!

 

[George Binks]

Now let's get Magnus signed

 

[Arthuros]

does Etem get pushed back onto waivers?

No way, it'd be Boll before Etem.

 

[HanSolo]

****ing finally.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

does Etem get pushed back onto waivers?

Seeing that Anaheim has very little to resign Lindholm, And wasn't Etem pretty much a plug until Rakell got resigned. So it wouldn't surprise me to see Etem go back on waivers.

 

[GoJetsGo55]

Great deal!

 

[gilfaizon]

Raymond will likely be the casualty.

If someone wants him, they can have him.
