Player Discussion Jake Evans (Part II)

[EveryDay]

If he sign it's going to be 5 years at 3.75M.

 

[Kosseca]

If he sign it's going to be 5 years at 3.75M.

and I would be ok with that.

 

[Goal Caufield50]

traded for a 2nd round pick

He wont sing. A new contract with us makes no sense for both party unless we overpay.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Flip this guy yesterday

 

[DAChampion]

I wonder what other teams are willing to offer.

 

[Goalfield13]

Five years for a 28 year old that has never put up more than 29 points is an EASY pass. Have we learned nothing from the Gallagher contract?

Evans was never about the points. It's such a lazy argument.

If they trade him and Armia together while retaining on Armia a cond 1st is not impossible. It's one of the best pk duo in the league. Dvorak gonna be the tough one to trade with that contract. Great 4th liner but with this contract ...

Evans was never about the points. It's such a lazy argument.

When it comes to term and big bucks, it had better be about the points. This is a decent player that lacks physicality and grit - is 28 years old already, and certainly not worth locking up until he turns 33 or 34.

I wouldn't sign him to a day over two years or a penny more than $3M (per year).

His term is a year long and the money is perfectly adequate for a guy that shoulders so much defensive responsibilities. Without him, Suzuki would be so worn down. There's more to hockey than points. We need him with so many young Cs coming up, and he would get his money and term easily on the open market. You lose him, and you will be lamenting the black hole we will have at the C position for many years to come.

traded for a 2nd round pick

i would be shocked if this was the case.
I think KH would go for a young player in return if the other option is a 2nd .

So Evans asking for 5 years as per Lavoie. Montreal wants 4.

I'm just curious when Lavoie has been right about anything, ever, in the entirety of his existence?

Evans brings nothing Beck can't handle.

 

[HabsCode]

Most I give to Evans is 3.75*4.

Want more? I would politely show him the door.

 

[Vachon23]

Evans is probably one of the toughest decisions Hugo have to make since they are here.

In one side, we have no one who can replace him in the short term and we already know he fits well in the system and in the lockeroom

In the other side, it’s probably time to cash in he best season and year 4-5 could be risky all though 4 m in 4-5 will probably be what 2m
Is worth today and he won’t be a problem to move.
