Could be as well talking about his bottom six favorite work horses. Probably is. To those guys the difference between $1.2M and $1.7M AAV matters a lot and will be causing issues in their re-signing to Canes.Rod was on Adam Gold today and talked about the 3 years. Said he didn't want more than 3 years because he didn't want to have to quit (if the deal was longer) or be fired. He said he likes the players they have now but things can change in 3 years time.
Aho, TT, and Pesce are UFAs in 3 years. Slavin in 4 years.
I still think Brind'Amour will either win a cup or finish out a deal with a really strong run and ride into the sunset. I don't think he'll stick around a rut long enough to be fired, not because he doesn't have tenacity or anything but because I don't think his goal is to stick around forever. He wants to pull the canes out if the doldrums and will step away when he feels that job has been done.
Or physical trainer...Bet he moves into the office in some capacity, probably some type of advisory role to stay in the origination.
I think Rod re-signs every 3 years for another 3 years until he's burnt out and has a successor lined up. Short enough contract to not feel trapped but long enough to still have legitimate skin in the game. I would also not be shocked if he tries to groom Williams into being that successorRod was on Adam Gold today and talked about the 3 years.
