Confirmed with Link: Canes re-sign Slavin 51.69M/8 years

[chaz4hockey]

I’d go 6. Slavin has outstanding stick work but also depends on his speed. He will slow down back part of a long contract.

I mean I'm glad they are getting this out of the way now. If there is any player that stirs the drink in Raleigh, it's Slavin, so make him a Cane for life, I'm all for it.

Just wish we had some kind of urgency toward the current free agents

They've been known to go right up to the last minute on some of the guys they bring back over the years. Deadlines spur action, I suppose. It just feels scarier with all the work they have to do this offseason. But I'm sure they have a plan. It's just a matter of whether or not they can execute it. It's also worth noting that pretty much nothing is happening around the league. Perhaps between the weird schedule and the jump in the cap, things are going to be really thrown off this offseason for a bit.

I will give the front office this: they are a brave group of guys there. They don't always do the popular thing but they, at least as of now, have had nothing but consistent success for six straight seasons (to me, what makes me see them as successes is that we have not seen any regression in our regular season results from year to year, unlike a club like, say, Toronto this season). It would be nice to see them rewarded with a Cup some day, but they'll keep plugging on with excellent rosters until it finally comes.

Slavin realizes that money is nothing in the face of god, he must remain humble and not materialistic...signs for 8 yr @ $1M/yr!!

Devils advocate...the more he makes the more he can donate to food banks or digging wells.

Doubt Slavin is listening to the Devil's advocate though...

Yeah, he's not going to chase every last penny, certainly didn't on his last deal, but he's going to insist on something at least fair for his value and he's going to continue to be generous with that money.

I'm basically expecting that symbolic $7.4m deal, probably 6 years or so.

 

[Stickpucker]

My guess...

7 x 6.74m

A bit odd bc I don't have Slavin pegged as the sentimental type.

One of the few contracts we got done quickly bodes well.

 

[Stickpucker]

Hedman (in his prime) Fox or Makar would get well north of $10 mil.

When was Fox's new deal for 9.5 through his prime signed?

 

[spockBokk]

7.77M by 7 yrs, triple 7, a holy trinity of God’s number

He will go Beast mode for that contract.

UPDATE: My sources tell me the thought to be done Slavin contract extension has now been pulled off the table

He will go Beast mode for that contract.

You reckon?

Well, i guess mine was too subtle (do the math, people!)

in the most shocking twist since verbal kint straightened his gait, slavin signs for 8 x 8.325

There is always math!

(8 x 8.325 = 66.6)

Slavin himself has overthrown the table and, making a scourge of small cords, driven the contract from the temple

 

[Lempo]

Sir, please do notice, I did some reckoning.

Just what I saw in my old dreams. Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me?

Well, i guess mine was too subtle (do the math, people!)

Per Friedman we are looking at 8 x $6.5m

 

[Identity404]

Given the Borgs MO, you know it’s going to be a team friendly deal if it’s signed quickly without reports of friction.

Slavin probably took the first offer on the table:

Per Friedman we are looking at 8 x $6.5m

That's such a good deal, even if Slavin does have some drop off as he ages.
