Confirmed with Link: Cole Perfetti signed 2X 3.25AAV
- Thread starter gojetsgo
- Start date
Glad the deal is done, though I think Cole is worth a bit more. Hopefully he’s happy with the deal, I’m sure the Jets are.
Very nice to hear. At the Chevy end of a compromise, that was probably to be expected.

That was my guess as well. Chevy worked for the cap space, but very glad it is done.

Sounds like hard bargaining. Not unlike the Copp and Trouba deals relatively. Glad the kid just wants to play hockey in Winnipeg.

He'll need it for that big Pionk extention incoming lol
Okay this was the last piece of immediate business. Next on the debate list is what happens with Ehlers.

Nice to be done. Wish it was long term but at least there's no more camp time missed.
Thankfully, we can stop talking about the contract and start cheering for Cole to have a great season!
Someone interrupt @surixon supper as his boy is signed.
Leaves room on the table for another deadline acquisition
Which isn't a problem, if Chevy stays away from pure rentals and has enough cap space to take on hockey trades for players with term.

Hoo RAY!
Glad to have this done. Sounds like a fair deal to me. In the lower part of the range I was expecting.

It took that long for a 2 year bridge? 
I'm going to assume that they were too far apart on a long term contract so circled back to a bridge.

Glad to have that done. I am still not happy with how Bowness cost Perfetti his goals performance bonus via his nonsense scratches. Thought he was gonna make an issue out of it in these negotiations. Hopefully Chipman gets him some Santa Lucia Pizza and Jimmy Buick Chevrolet BMC endorsement deals to make up for that travesty by the former coach.

Bridge deal was the obvious choice for both sides here I think.
EDIT: The way negotiations were handled and Perfetti's relaxed vibe about the whole situation, I bet they tried to get a long-term deal done but both sides figured it wasn't likely so had this in the back pocket ready to go.

It's done.
Jets will have a lot at the deadline again.
Now up to Cole to go out and earn his big pay day.
