Detroit Red Wings and Darren Helm agree to terms on a 5 year/ $3.85M AAV #DRW

All I can say is Bozak is a steal of a contract at $4.25M.

Wow!

 

[BStinson]

O Kenny....

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

What the ****?

Jumping off a cliff now.

 

[Pi]

BTW, that's a discount according to Dreger. .

 

[WingNut]

Ken Holland is ********!

 

[JJTT]

Awful. AA is already better.

 

[mcpw]

oh wow

 

[bleedblue1223]

Fair cap hit, wouldn't do that term though.

 

[Flyerss]

Too much money and term

 

[SprDaVE]

Dreger calling this a discount is amazing to me.

 

[gretskidoo]

Too long and too much. 3x3 or something would be fine.

 

[Heraldic]

Kenny really putting all his cap in great use. :---D

But the silver lining is that Abby's contract looks a lot better now.

Awful. AA is already better.

Yup this already means that AA is going to get screwed for Another 5 years or so.

 

[Reddwit]

This is disgusting.

 

[ShadowDuck]

Maybe a year too long but decent deal.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

Holland Holland Holland.

 

[MardyBum]

Gooood. Was worried the Jets were going to go after Helm and let Perreault go at the end of the season.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

I was hoping this was a prank on Twitter...

Some teams love to overpay role players and give them too much term.

It's doubtful that he's worth that now, but he surely won't be when he's 34-35. Do the Wings really need a 34-year-old Helm that much?

 

[Shoalzie]

I wanted him to walk because he was going to get overpaid...thanks Ken.

 

[abbbaron]

Patented Holland.

 

[Langdon Alger]

This is why we have work stoppages.
