Confirmed Signing with Link: [MIN] F Yakov Trenin signs with the Wild (4 years, $3.5M AAV)

[ViD]

The cap rising 4.5m is for all players on the roster, not EACH one.

4.5 per 32 teams. With about 30-40 solid UFAs

Those two are worlds apart

Not sure who you’re saying is better but…

Jeannot returned a whole class of draft picks and then a 2nd + 4th. Trenin returned a late 3rd.

It's widely accepted that that deal was one of the worst blunders in TB history; besides--
one wasn't a pending unrestricted free agent, the other was, poor comparison of players and unfit comparison of picks used--apples and oranges.
By your logic Guentzel = Trenin

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Signed to play 3rd line and PK. Will get a chance to earn it I guess.

Not sure what you're trying to get at, Guentzel returned a hell of a lot more than Trenin.

If Jeannot was in a completely different realm than Trenin, he wouldn't have returned a 2nd + 4th a few days prior to Trenin signing this deal.

Awesome player but that contract is a little wild
