Confirmed with Link: Andrew Shaw, 6 years/3.9M AAV.

6 years for a 3rd liner

My god does MB and MT love bad contracts for mediocre players.

No one is ever going to touch this contract. They better pray he doesn't break down and that he succeeds in MT's anti-hockey

What's wrong in signing a 24 year old player to a six year contract?

 

[Cole Caulifield]

For me, if you give 6 years to a player like Shaw... he should take a big discount on the amount. I'll go against the grain and all reports and say 3.3M. Anything over 3.7M is unfair to Gallagher.

 

[Ghetto Sangria]

He's 24. We get him in his prime and he's most definitely a usefull player. As long as the cap hit is reasonable we should be celebrating

 

[RealityBytes]

Source: Andrew Shaw has a 6-year offer on the table, at close to 4 million a year.

What does close mean?

 

[Tuggy]

Better be under 4. Scary term.

 

[jaffy27]

4 years too many

Yep, and when he scores 15 goals a year and is a warrior in the playoffs, after your 2 years, he'll become a UFA and will go to the highest bidder and you'll have lost 2 second round picks for him, everyone will complain

 

[The Nightman]

I bet Bergy is rattled he couldn't make it seven years

 

[WeThreeKings]

He's 24 man, now 34

We've seen players fall off before..

He isn't a superstar player.. giving 6 years to a player who hasn't played ONE game for you, is asinine.

 

[CH25]

I knew it lol. This is Bergevin guys.

We already lost one pick too many acquiring him, and since picks apparently don't matter, who would care if they both went to waste, amirite?

[Lebowski]

3.9M...



Bergevin is a cluster****.

 

[le_sean]

$3.9 per for 6 years? **** yourself Bergevin

As soon as I heard Bergevin utter the name "Shawzie" I knew it was love. Up next, the Desharnais extension.

 

[vokiel]

Ugly...

 

[Carey The Habs]

3.9....Joke. Pathetic.

 

[Eco]

As a Hawks fan, I'll miss Shaw, but man...that contract....good luck.

 

[CaptainBenn]

Who needs Stamkos when you have Shaw

 

[LastWordArmy]

3.9 AAV
