So Konecny signs an eight year contract for $70m from the Flyers. That works out to $8.75m a season.....more than Horvat got from the Islanders and more than J.T. Miller got from the Canucks.Interesting....would have though that Konecny and the Flyers would go different directions.
With his stature and play style it was smart to grab the bag when tabled.
Boeser is gonna be a tough one for us. If your willing to give Hronek 8yrs and fellow draft class men like Konecny are getting it good luck with discussions around not giving it
Man did last years playoff run really expose some media types. Used to think the crotch watcher was the only one on the panel who was a total 2 face.
Now they are coming out in droves
Konecny is good, but nowhere near that good. As a career scorer, he's basically a 55-65 point player. You simply can't cough up that kind of money for a 60 point scorer. But the aforementioned Horvat got $8m out of the Islanders; and Lindholm $7.75m out of the Bruins. And they're 60-point players at the best of times.
Memo to myself--never complain about the contracts for Miller and Pettersson, ever again.
