Confirmed Signing with Link: [DAL] G Jake Oettinger signs extension with the Stars (8 years, $8.25M AAV)

[Dallasman]

8 x$10m incoming

Nope...

 

[Phrasing]

Nope...

You don’t think he’s worth that? He’s 21 and I bet he has a PPG season this year. If anything, I think if you wait longer the price goes up.

 

[sepHF]

oof

 

[Breakers]

You don’t think he’s worth that?

Maybe he is

This contract is more an indictment on shesterkins contract demands and about resetting the market by 15-20% which is ridiculous

 

[Dallasman]

You don’t think he’s worth that? He’s 21 and I bet he has a PPG season this year. If anything, I think if you wait longer the price goes up.

Didn't say that.

But he's not getting $10 mill.

 

[Bizz]

This makes Ullmark's deal look like a joke.

 

[McFlyingV]

LOL resetting the goalie market

Ny should tell shesterkin to kick rocks

Where are those clowns on Igor’s side about him being worth that.
Comps are running thin.

Don't think the Rangers are in any position to do that. They have been a poor team analytically for 3 seasons and 3 playoffs in a row and have essentially been the modern day Buffalo Sabres with Dominik Hasek.

They have a weak GM that is allowing his agent to compare him to other players on the team.

When a good GM would tell said agent to Frank off and compare him to other goaltenders

It’s like Darren Ferris getting Marners contract and comparing him to Matthews.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

This makes Ullmark's deal look like a joke.

Ullmark is a UFA and only signed for 4 years.

UFA and RFA years are different

 

[Monsieur Miz]

This makes Ullmark's deal look like a joke.

How so? They have very similar stats and Ullmark has a Vezina.

 

[dgibb10]

He got the swayman deal

Lol at Igor thinking he 4 million better then either of these 2

RFA vs UFA.

Also:

86 GSAx vs 39 GSAx vs 29 GSAx over the last 3 regular seasons

49 GSAx vs 11 GSAx vs 11 GSAx

He IS that much better.

Maybe, but Shesterkin has a good case to be the highest paid goalie in the NHL given his season and playoff stats the past 3 years on a team that analytically is in the middle to bottom half of the league every season and postseason. Bobrovsky makes 10M, Carey Price making 10.5M. He has a pretty good case for 11-12M.

 

[Mirka the Turka]

What a steal

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Swayman really did reset the goalie market, he just reset it to where goalies are making what they should without hamstringing their team.

 

[MBTendy]

RFA vs UFA.

He IS that much better.

Yet has not had much playoffs success at all. 4mill more than Swayman and Otter is laughable

He is , easily. I don’t want to be pay him it but he’s way better than Oettinger the fraud

Bobrovsky makes 10M, Carey Price making 10.5M. He has a pretty good case for 11-12M.

He does have a case which is what they offered him and I think he should be

Not 15%-20% more though

 

[TGWL]

Igor is about to look real stupid with his 12m ask, especially considering he plays for a contender in the most desirable destination to play in the league. Lol

He will reset the market for nobody since all the top goalies will be signed. Of course price likely would have been higher elsewhere as Dallas benefits from the tax, but any goalie asking for 12 should be viewed as replaceable. I get that we (NYR) rely so much on goaltending but it's just a disaster waiting to happen.

Oettinger can get another contract after this, even if it's a smaller/short deal, so it's good for him, but I think players should stop with the RFA vs UFA stuff when it comes to contracts.

 

[McFlyingV]

Yet has not had much playoffs success at all. 4mill more than Swayman and Otter is laughable

He's taken a team who analytically has been the worst and 3rd worst team in the playoffs in the respective years to the conference finals in 2 of the past 3 postseasons.

I can't believe people are actually trying to criticize Shesterkin's playoff performances where he has been hands down the best goalie in the league the past 3 postseasons combined.

 

[GhostfaceWu]

Holy overpay

Holy overpay

 

[Mogo]

8.25m a year

Must be nice not having no state income tax!!!
















Oh yeah

 

[McFlyingV]

He does have a case which is what they offered him and I think he should be

Not 15%-20% more though

He has a very good case to be making 15-20% more than Bobrovsky given his stats and advanced stats the past 3 seasons and playoffs.

Keep in mind when comparing to Swayman and Oettinger, who he has outperformed by a massive margin, that he is a pending UFA not an RFA.

Any middle of the pack team with cap space would throw that money at him because he's currently turning a middle of the pack NYR team into a consistent cup contender.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Man it's still so crazy to me that one of the best goaltenders in the league will only make 8.25M per season for 8 years but an absolute scrub in the NBA who plays like 12 minutes per night can make 10M per year on a 4 year contract then somehow get a pay raise.

Not crazy. NHL will never be as big as the other sports and their TV deals.

A bench player can make more than McDavid lol

 

[Romang67]

Shesterkin is chasing his likely last big contract. He's pushing 30. Swayman and Oettinger have not performed close to what Shesterkin has the past few years. They are poor comparisons.

Oh yeah

Oh you know, it let us save money on....
