Pressure is on now, kid!
Better see a 7.5M performance every year now.

Good bet of a contract and I don't think it's a coincidence that the announcement coincides with an otherwise inactive July 1st.
It will take the spotlight away from not making any big ufa signing which probably would have been a mistake regardless.

Sorry, you only get 2 donkeys for that money.

Always remember the people here who were cheering for the Gallagher contract who are now acting like it was obviously a bad deal.
Fans have short memories...
And what if settles as a 50 point player?

If Slaf isn't worth this contract, our rebuild is screwed. Very worthwhile gamble.
Um, is this some kind of cosmic , preordained stuff ?????60M for our boy
David Desharnais is waiting for his kickback for enrolling the kid when he was 9.

Well at least we have Demidov coming up who's going to be eligible for a big Contract in 4 years...
but yeah i agree a contract like that makes no sense...
Its like management changed stance since Subban, they've never low balled any one since then...

It was a minority. Most felt that contract was a mistake the moment it was signed.
2nd best. Edmonton did re-sign Corey Perry and guarantee itself another stanley cup finals next year.

You don't pay a player for what he has done. Thats a trap.
You pay him for what he will do.
Steal. Holy f***ing steal. Prime Slaf for 7.6M

If Perry revisits a team they are eliminated in the first rounds.
Dallas, new team, finals, lost
Habs, new team, finals, lost
Tampa, new team, finals, lost
Tampa, same team, first round exit.
Chicago, contract terminated, Edmonton, new team, finals, lost.
Edmonton, same team, will be a first round exit.

Yep
Precisely why I prefer our stallions.
You can literally fit a whole other elite forward/d-man in the cap with the difference in salary.
23.325m for Nick, Cole & Slaf
35.653m for Matthews, Nylander & Marner

This is a “I’m here for the team and not for myself like a Maple Leaf” type of contract.
Obviously a lot of risk but if he continues that trajectory from last season, this is gonna be a great contract.

Love it!!!!.......and to think we have over 11 million in 3 expired contracts at the end of this season.....we are in unbelievable position moving forward

I’m fine with it. It’s this managements choice to make bets on guys, and that’s fine. It worked for Suzuki, so hopefully Caufield and Slaf take upwards trajectories as well.
It’s obvious management has identified our core and will build around who they’ve identified.

Uh duh... Management changed since then. And low balling Subban was one of the dumbest idea anyone ever had.
