Confirmed Signing with Link: [DET] D Moritz Seider re-signs with Wings (7 years, $8.55M AAV)

[TBF1972]

i wonder why they settled on a 7 year term contract.

did seider's camp push for the same number they could have signed an offer sheet?

A little surprised at this amount. He had so much leverage.

The belief is that an 8th year took the term to 9 or more. There is the rumoured no one makes more than Dylan Larkin, though that might just be fans/media wondering.

the aav to 9 or more

belief or rumor?

Solid deal for team and player

 

[dgibb10]

Theres always a first and no one would have been shocked if he had signed 10 per for 8. He's a stud top pairing RHD that is a special player.

It would have 100% been shocking to see a pre arbitration RFA of Seiders caliber get 10+ mill.

Adam Fox and Cale Makar went 1-2 in norris voting before signing their contracts. If Yzerman gave Mo f***ing Seider Makar/Fox money you find someone else to negotiate your contracts

Yeah, 9 mil per year. Just rumours, though it was reported by insiders.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Only an imbecile like Yzerman can make the Nurse contract seem reasonable

Maybe but I guarantee you with cap rising you will see it soon enough.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

great deal

At some point sure, but it'll either be with a much higher cap than 88 mill, or with an actual norris caliber dman (or both).

Like again, with Makar and Fox. They were the 2 best dman in hockey, so they broke the 9 mill mark.

Seider is a few tiers down from them. If you expected Seider to get 10+ mill you must have very low expectations for Yzerman.

The only guy dumb enough to do something like that is Dubas.

 

[HabsQC]

Solid

 

[Borlag]

Most GMs would be fired after 5 years in charge and not one playoff berth.

Maybe that kind of impatience is one of the reasons Philadelphia is celebrating its 50th season from the last cup.

 

[wmupreds]

This is a fair deal. I think it's less of a sure thing than some here that he lives up to it, but there's potential for it to be a steal too. Kinda key to me is if Seider doesn't pan out to a true no. 1 the Red Wings are kind of screwed anyway. So you might as well take the risk vs (for example) bridging him and potentially paying millions more later.

Awesome contract, Yzerman has really knocked the core deals out of the park.

Couldn’t be happier. Both #23 and #53 locked up long term on what will be very team friendly deals in a few years. Nice to see some positives after a long stretch of suffering….

 

[EXTRAS]

Was hoping 8.3 but this is fine.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I think if Seider had a near PPG season there’s no chance he would have signed for this price. Both Bouchard and Dobson will ask for 10.

I don’t doubt that unfortunately.

That's going to be a great deal the second half of the contract if not sooner.

It’s market value today. Could be a steal as early as this or next season.

 

[nbwingsfan]

Heck ya

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Dude noooooooooooooooooooo no more offer sheet dreams.

 

[Dr Amazing]

Only 4 years next contract will be 16 Million a season .

 

[Sombastate]

Great contract for a great player.

 

[NyQuil]

Solid deal, pretty much in line with the long-term contracts signed lately.

 

[Tryamkin]

Will Seider play PP1 this year? I know Gus was brought in… how long is his leash?

 

[Czechboy]

Excellent work from Yzerman.

Happy for both sides. I think seider did have a down year and I know many say deployment but I think he is not surrounded by enough quality in the back end so he gets exposed unfairly (which I blame Yzerman for). Eg. Wings either have guys that are more like place fillers or winding down (Holl, Chariot, Petry) or guys that will be great and are years away (ASP, Erviddson is close). Leaves seider in a weird spot IMO. And yes I know wings fans don't like my takes lol

Holland left some mighty large clown shoes to fill. Who gave nurse that contract?
