Well earned, could be a steal

 

[Gurglesons]

Term is being handed out like candy this off season.

If there’s anyone who deserves it; it’s Batherson.

 

[Neiler]

This is gonna be a steal 3 years in.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Love it.

 

[cudi]

shoulda known his extension would be announced on Drake day

 

[varano]

Terrible

 

[Bevans]

Signs exact same contract as Farabee next day. This is what I expected with Tkachuk and Svechnikov.

 

[edguy]

I love this deal and I love Drake. He will be a Sen for his whole Career and I could not be happier about it

 

[Artanis]

Terrible

How?

Term is being handed out like candy this off season.

With Covid messing things up and flat cap I think GM's are just trying to lower short term cap numbers by adding the length.

 

[Iwishihadaspacebar]

This could be a brilliant contract if he continues to progress.

 

[TheNewEra]

How?

If we arent overpaying for a core player then we are doing it wrong. Got to follow the toronto blueprint and their playoff success

 

[Blacephalon]

17 goals, 17 assists, 34 points in 56 games last season

 

[OmniSens]

Could be a steal of a deal! He could easily be a 60-70 point player with the right line mates. Worth the risk.

 

[CupofOil]

This deal is likely to age beautifully. These RFA deals paying for projected potential are much better than UFA deals that paid for past production.

 

[cg98]

Steal of a contract for a steal of a draft pick.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Very good contract for the Sens

 

[Taluss]

Love it

 

[Blacephalon]

Steal of a contract for a steal of a draft pick.

Yup, 4th round pick

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

It alright not a steal would have waited and gave him a one year contract. With what happened with Colin White and him breaking out in the North Division which at times was not the greatest of hockey. Also have to consider 15 of his 34 point were powerplay points and his shooting percentage was a little high so not sure if that's sustainable. Will probably end up being fair deal for both sides would be very surprised if he out plays this deal imo.

 

[57special]

Reminiscent of the Colin White deal. Virtually the same amount, same term, paid after one good year.

 

[NHL Dude 120]

Terrible

That projects to almost 50pt a season. Having a little under 5 mil for a 50 pt player is a great deal.
