Yea every other GM is just an idiot and Drury is a genius. Give me a break, most these contracts are actually a lot lower than what I would’ve guessed especially with the cap going up
Common Jovo L.
Even if the cap is going up, it isn't going up so high immediately that these contracts will be any better. These guys are going to continue to age as the cap rises and handing out multi year deals to players in approaching or just flat out in their mid 30's almost
never ends well.
Most of these teams are going to wish they had those dollars come deadline day or for future UFA periods where there are better players available. There have been basically maybe 2 contracts handed out today that were good deals and maybe another 2 that were fair or even decent value.
Huge mistakes are always made on this day and there were plenty of them made today. There are guys I wanted that they missed on who ended up getting stupid money. Arvidsson is the only one that is bugging me a bit as far as the UFA's go and I think Roy's AAV is solid as well.
