NHL: Around the League 53

You guys are crazy. 8x8 isnt that much anymore.

Sorokin just got the same contract 2 years older. Hellebuyck got 8.5x8 at 30 years old.

Hanafin Hronek Jarvis are all getting similar deals. Swayman is 25 and a top 7? goalie in the league.

Both those goalies are better than Swayman, and have proven to be #1 goalies playing 55+ games.

It is for goalies. It's not the cap hit it's the term.

Disagree when the goalies seasons are 26-34.

That is nuts

Rangers time to look forward to post Shesterkin era at this point

And frankly that contract is absurd offer to begin with as he only had 1 elite year and has been pedestrian since and will turn 29 in a couple months

 

[Hattrick Kane]

You’re better off going with a decent goalie and a solid backup. Rangers window is going to slam shut if they pay him. Especially because their forward core is up there in age.

That is insane for him to reject that especially coming off a down year by his standards. Ridiculous.

I’m not sure any goalie is worth that contract to begin with. LOL at the sucker GM signing him to such deal.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Rangers should trade him now

 

[Hawkaholic]

Apparently there's a rumour he wants a shorter term deal (3-5 years), so maybe that's why he rejected it?

Marner for Shesterkin who says no

 

[Mrfenn92]

Marner for Shesterkin who says no

Rangers probably with the cap hits

Rangers probably with the cap hits

Ah, yeah, forgot he's only a 5M or so hit currently.

That would be something. Holding out for an 8 year deal at age 35 as a goalie is a really gamble

He better chip in 25 goals too if he wants over 11 mil a season.

Shesterkin is f***ing idiot lmao
