Confirmed Signing with Link: [EDM] F Connor Brown re-signs with the Oilers (1 year, $1M)

Yeah, 1mil seems like quite a steal to me.

Him making 3mil in bonuses doesn't have anything to do with this contract, by the way. He would be paid that regardless. That's no reason for him to accept a discount, and if it is the reason, his agent should be fired.

Brown said he didn’t want to leave, so props to him for taking less to make it happen.

I can’t help but think he legitimately might have signed this, at least to some extent, because of the fans giving him a 2 minute standing ovation when he finally got a goal this year.

“It meant a lot,“ Brown told reporters after the game. “You play in a big market like this, they’re aware of the storylines. It means a lot. It’s been a struggle this year, offensively. I haven’t been able to get one to go. For their support to shine through there, they’re rooting for me, it was a good feeling.”

Yesssssssss

I thought it would be 1.5 minimum which I still would have been happy with.

1.15 with 250k performance bonuses. Better be something like playing over half the playoff games or something big on production.

He said his heart was here in Edmonton. It goes both ways. We love Brownie. Glad to have him back.

When he had his goal less drought I said at the time that crappy bonus could be mitigated if he showed well to end the year. He did exactly that and now we get him back at a discount to make this contract a huge Win.

seems a lil soft low ball to me
