This will keep the AAV down. Probably also means he's gone in 3 seasons... which is perfectly fine considering where the Avs are at.

 

[Muffin]

Eh 3 years is kind of weak. Does it walk him straight to UFA? Did we buy any UFA years at all?

 

[henchman21]

Eh 3 years is kind of weak.

Probably keeps his contract at 5m or even close (or under). To get 5+ years probably would require >6m.

 

[Balthazar]

3 years sucks ass...yikes

AAV better be ultra low

 

[Mighty Makar]

I’m guessing $4.75M.

 

[Nzap]

Interesting.
Let's hope then the aav starts with a four.

That's garbage

Ouch... that's honestly not good at all.

 

[Nzap]

Yeah, that's not a four

 

[Mighty Makar]

Damn! He’s gone in 3 years.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

That's not great.

Edit: I mean I guess it isn't terrible. The 3 years is actually probably a good thing. But you'd have liked this to be closer to 5.0 than 6.0 for just 3 years.


It's $250k less than I was allocating for it mocks so I guess it's a little more wiggle room.

 

[hockeyfish]

Woof.

 

[Balthazar]

Ouch... that's honestly not good at all.

Has CMac signed a good contract yet? Other than reclamation projects

Wood, Colton and now this

 

[The Abusement Park]

Jesus… I mean good for Casey. But yeesh that’s bad.

 

[LOFIN]

Not ideal

Toews?

 

[Balthazar]

Toews?

No lol

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

Walks him to free agency and still nearly gets $6M. That's steep, no?

 

[jaisen73]

Its about for that kind of AAV it should have been more than 3 years. But, that said, I am glad the business is done and as others noted, it puts him at UFA right around the time a rebuild of some kind will need to get underway.

[Mighty Makar]

This makes me kind of scared to see what Drouin will get.

I'd say so, but he has some misses for sure.

I care less about the term than the AAV. 3 years is probably at the end of the grasping straws to stay competitive... so that's fine. In doing so this should have been closer to 5m. That's the big miss to me.

I'd say this signals 3 things. Avs having some fear of an offer sheet to get it done quickly. The arbitration case didn't favor them. With term, Mitts was probably asking for 7.

With the cap going up, he wouldn't have signed for 6 years at that AAV. He's looking for a proper payday.

Should've shaved off that 750k at least, considering our general cap situation.

 

[Spender]

Not ideal, but at least we have a 2C for a few more seasons.

They won't start rebuilding in 3 years.

Rant's contract will be 2 year deep and Makar will have a brand new one
