[Sheros expletives]

Great deal.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

so happy with this contract

Shero has been killing it.

 

[SixthSens]

Nice deal for Jersey.

 

[MintyFresh88]

This is a really solid deal. Confirms that we overpaid Smith by about 400-500K per year.

 

[Maukkis]

If he can even somewhat keep his level from last year, this is a very good deal.

 

[Devils090]

That's a phenomenal deal, Shero has had himself quite a week

 

[RSeen]

Wow what a steal. I would have thought at least $5 million if not closer to 5.5.

 

[Colin226]

All hail the great Lord Shero

 

[Offseason Champs]

Let's hope that Palms continues to repeat last season and earn that contract for sure.

 

[HawkeyTalkMan]

Most people figured around $5 mil was fair for him given his production last year but not quite proven resume yet.

The fact that NJD got him under $5 makes this a great deal. Cant at all fault this price tag for a guy on the rise that just scored 30 and is only 25

Even if he regresses back to his career shooting percentage from before this past year, it would drop him down to about 24ish goals per season at the same shot volume, which is still fair value at $4.6 per for a 24-25ish goal scorer

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

**** yeah baby!

Great deal. Welcome back KPalm.

 

[kingdok]

Looks like a really good contract right after Reilly Smith, who's an easy comparable.

 

[DeVols]

What a great deal! Nice job (again), Shero!

 

[vtdevils2k]

What a great deal. Shero has been fantastic so far for this franchise.

Can't wait to see what else he does

 

[mytduxfan*]

Even if Palms regresses to a 20-25 goal scorer, that's still a crazy good deal.

 

[Rhodes 81]

Solid deal. I'm glad we didn't pay too much as Palmieri may regress a bit from this year. If he can maintain as a 25+ goal scorer it's a great deal.

 

[Trapper]

The Devils have been making some real solid moves.
A silent wildcard to make the playoffs.

 

[Hurricane Hugo]

Thanks for giving him away, Murray. I can't pretend that I'm not jealous. Great deal.

 

[Brooklyndevil]

Very good deal. I thought he would get $5.5 for six years.

 

[Hockeypete49]

All hail the great Lord Shero

His Dad was a great mentor here in Philly. Very nice deal for the bevs.

 

[moon*]

Great deal?

That looks brutal for a guy with one good season and no reason to think that is going to be close to the norm for him.

But if Devils fans are happy as they all seem to be here I guess congrats to you.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Good deal

 

[SeidoN]

steal of a trade and steal of a contract

damn Shero is killing it this offseason. to think this team was a rotted corpse when he took over

we are not world beater by any means, but compare the team now to when he took charge. incredible job so far.

 

[RememberTheName]

And I thought we might be able to get through this without people making comments like this
He has consistently put up the same rates that he put up in Anaheim on New Jersey, but on the Ducks, he was only getting 11 minutes of ice time a night, while in Jersey, he is getting close to 19 minutes a night
