Confirmed with Link: Avs re-sign F Jonathan Drouin ($2.5m x 1y)

[Hasbro]

He doubled down on the bet on himself.

No player should ever take a GMs word on a “handshake deal”. They should all be told Danny Manning‘s story as the reason why you don’t do that.

Sharks got royally f***ed with Labanc because of a handshake deal. Dude deserved something like 1.5M X 1 and they had to give him 4.75M X 4. It's more dangerous for the team than the player.

I don't believe that Drouin has a handshake deal anyway. Not with Mikko's huge raise next season and the uncertainty around Nuke and Landy.

Of course a Kansas reference is slipped in here.

Still only 5’11” and 198 pounds.

It's not the size of the dog in the fight but size of the fight in the dog that matters.

Had that on my practice jersey when I was 11 years old playing for the Toronto Red Wings.

Our coach loved that phrase.

Always hated that old bastard.

By dog, we're talking about penises, right?

Size Queen.

Such a weird question to ask...

...of course that's what they're talking about!

You know we’re deep into offseason when a Drouin thread becomes a topic about penises

I saw a youtube video on Dan Daly (marine awarded the medal of honor twice and then military changed the rules to only allow people to win it once, after he was nominated for and rightfully deserved a third, but the politicians declined it and gave him two other medals instead.

The Fat Electrician claims the phrase was coined by President Eisenhower in reference to Daly, who was an absolute behemoth at 5'6" and 132 pounds.

You just wanted to use the words deep and penis together in a sentence.
