Dorion is the guy that buys drinks for the hot girl all night and Yzerman is the guy that swoops in before last call and takes her home.
Confirmed with Link: DeBrincat signs for 4 year, $7.875 per year extension)

This was Yzerman's best trade so far.

Detroit vs. Everybody
Flexibility to move on is never a bad thing.
Scenario 1, he puts up 30-40 goals a year on a contender/playoff team (easy extension opportunity with team success. Cap hit will likely be similar to 8-9 mil again)
Scenario 2, he puts up 30-40 goals a year and the team still stinks (flip him for a decent package year 3 or 4)
Scenario 3, he falls below expectations and you get out of a bad contract while you continue to rebuild.
Most unlikely... Scenario 4, he stinks and the team becomes a consistent playoff team/contender.
Not a lot of negative to committing only 4 years.

No I fully understand that DeBrincat handcuffed Ottawa but my expectation was Berggren and Bos 1st. So this is crazy and I love the contract. Steve knows this is where he wants to play so chances are when that contract is up resigning him shouldn't be too difficult.

Mission accomplished.
Especially for a guy who evidently wants to play for the Wings.

I love Shannon. His videos make me want to try to make YouTube content again.

Looked it up earlier. 34 of the 38 players rostered that season are no longer affiliated with the organization today.

I have a sneaky suspicion he Kane will be wearing the red and white. Would be kind of hilarious
There's cap space, both this year and next...
I'm not going to be refreshing like I was for this news, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's more being discussed.

Still stuck in the denial phase, I see. The first step to dealing with a problem is admitting there's a problem.
If you like, I could sponsor you at next week's Refreshers Anonymous meeting.
Hmmm
I'd assume a forward...
I wanted Pesce but after adding holl and ghost I dont see any room so I'd think EK65 would be out
I'm not a Kane fan, so this pains me to say, but I think Detroit is one of the better fits for him assuming he wants market value.
Detroit can pay him fair value.
Detroit has one of his best buds now.
Detroit isn't desperate for him to play at the start of the season as he recovers from his surgery rehab.
Detroit can easily move him at the deadline to a contender of his choice with salary retention.
If you're a contender, you can't sign Kane to more than $5 million, clog up your cap, and potentially fall down the standings waiting for him to return.
So...I'm not counting on it, but Detroit is one of those teams uniquely poised to take advantage of a short-term deal on a veteran like Kane.

I was a vocal poster, calling for caution on this DeBrincat deal.
I was very Leary of doing a 8-9Mil deal for 7-8 years with a guy who was not on our team, and just came off a 66pt year (his only year without P. Kane).
I must say, I am quite happy with the term and $'s on this deal.
I embrace the trade, and I hope to be proven wrong that Debrincat is only a 60-70 pt guy without Kane. I will now get a chance to get fully on board with this, as my biggest fear was the $ and Term. 4 years is a great term for him to stay hungry and prove his worth here. And By god, I hope he proves to be the greatest trade in a long time for us.
I am also a big fan of Kubalik, and I wish him well in Ottawa. I think he will do really well there and score 55pts.
The board has been down of late.
I like seeing everyone happy here.
Cheers all!

I’m just super relieved this wasn’t another Suter/Parise let down.
This makes our team immensely better even if we still miss playoffs.

This is an outstanding trade, wow. And this is exactly the type of player we needed.
