[Hire Sather]

Was always the plan. Cap space for a reason.

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

If true, I think thats great!

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Ignore my last post!!!

Would be a legend if he turned down all that money from NJ to take that.

 

[Levitate]

That's ducking crazy pants

 

[Killem Dafoe]

4 years would be cool.

 

[GregSirico]

I'm totally OK with giving him a little more for less years. I LOVE that.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Works for me. I'm much more afraid of term than money.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

ugh 6.9 ... but 4 years is ok right?

My question is, if we got ADA as an offensive RHD, why sign another one?

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

My god if people are upset with a 4 year deal.

I give up on this fanbase.

I think that was the problem for the majority of us, the term.

4 years, I can live with that.

Awesome. This defense can be elite next year.

Still need to find a Forward or two, centers really, but the defense is gonna be so much better at breaking out the offense it's gonna be night and day. No more will put offense be entirely breakaways generated by Forward speed.

 

[Levitate]

6.9 is a lot but 4 years basically mitigates the majority of the risk

 

[Doctyl]

4 years omg

 

[Levitate]

On the other hand let's wait until it's official

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I am so happy with the 4y deal. Holy ****, that's a great move by Gorton. Pay him but only for 4 years, to not cripple us fo the future... Learning rom Sather's mistakes

 

[Ghost of jas]

I would have gone five, but, that's a great deal.

 

[AWall THE CLAW]

Omg please!!!!

 

[E-Train]

4 years, if true, is outstanding. I wasn't all in on Shatty, but you can't pass that term up.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

The trade board has this as confirmed. I know Weekes is credible, but is this as good as confirmed?

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

I'm wondering how they agreed on 4 years. If I was Shattenkirk that would be a no go for me. Or at least 7.5 mil.

Cause you don't need just one offensive defenseman. Our power play has been horrid for a decade. Two puck movers/PP QBs is a huge shot in the arm.

If this is true, my sincerest thanks to GMJG for being smart, and an even bigger thanks to Shattenkirk for going with his heart instead of the scum from Jersey.

I'd rather overpay a bit for years 1-4 than years 5 6 and 7.

If true, of course.
