He deserved it, for sure.

 

[Canovin]

Damn you're fast.

Glad to have Pickard back

 

[HockeyVirus]

Happy for Pickard.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Seemed pretty solid at times and it's nice to see a guy who stuck with it hopefully get a solid 2 years in the NHL with all the luxuries that comes with it

 

[GAGLine]

Engage!

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Make it so!

 

[La Bamba]

No complaints, the man played well and seems very well-liked on the team

1M cap hit is glorious. Good work.

 

[AleksandarN]

Does that mean Skinny is number 1. Then make it so number 1.

Best goalie in the AHL last year. Completely solid as a backup all year. Can’t go wrong at this price.

 

[McDoused]

I was hoping it would be 850-900k but overall I'm happy with this.

He played 4 games in the AHL, no he was not the best in the AHL. What's next jack campbell being 2nd best in the AHL?

Honestly with the capability of burying the whole thing I wouldn't even been opposed to 3 years after what the guy just did for us.

No they tied for 1st best silly guy

 

[thefutures]

No they tied for 1st best silly guy

Both are great number 3s for any org

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Touch more than I would have liked, but he deserves it. He played very well for us whenever he was called upon.

 

[Zerotonine]

Not a bad signing, he paid for his own contact alone by helping us advance past Vancouver.

Those home playoff games are huge money makers for the owners

 

[M Ace]

3,6 million tied up for the goalie tandem the next two years and let Rodrigue shine in the AHL during the time.
If it wasn’t for Jacqline Campbell….

If it wasn’t for Jacqline Campbell….

5M rotting in the minors. Ugh.

 

[Osprey]

I can't see or hear his name without thinking of the Time's Arrow episode of TNG.

 

[Czechboy]

Meh. The player is ok. The Caphit is perfect (easily buried in AHL). The length is weird to me. I doubt he was getting many 2 year, 1 way contracts.

Getting a weird 'we are almost there' vibe from the Oiler's and hoping I'm wrong.

2 yr term will stop other GMs from claiming him off waivers. And it is a reward for him for being a great trooper for Oilers.

Pickard needs to fire his agent...not a great deal for Calvin...
