Yea I'm actually a little surprised we didn;t go to 3.25 per but we SHOULD have all expected that this would happen pretty much exactly as it did with little to no missed games. Now let's see if he can back up all this trouble with his play. He should more than live up to his end of the bargain
Confirmed with Link: Rangers re-sign Derek Stepan [2 years, $6.15M, $3.075M AAV]

The reports were that the Rangers offer was $2.9M and that they would go to $3.2M. I would assume, then, that the reports were not completely accurate.
Maybe to pick up Stepan?
EDIT: Here's your answer
Katie Strang @KatieStrangESPN 41s
#NYR Can confirm deal is worth $6.15M in total. Also, plan is for Stepan to fly to NY 2night, meet up w/ team once they return from out West

I don't think the number was ever really $3m that the Rangers were offering. It was $2.9m and it was only speculation that they were willing to go to $3.2m. You could just as easily wonder why the Rangers forced him into a holdout over $75k or even $175k. As with all negotiations, it's more about being in the right frame of mind to compromise than it is about the actual details of the deal.
Also, it doesn't sound like Stepan will be in Vegas.

Change is good.
The assumption is of course that the RANGERS leaked $3.2MM. However, it just as easily could have been the agent putting that number out there. Which would make total sense given where they eventually signed.
Isn't this like the third time Brooksie has reported what could be the eventual compromise number - only to have it then come in a little bit under that number? That would tell me that this is a dance that's played out before.

you have no clue if Sather wasn't north of 3 per until today.
He could have come in at 2.7 and Step could have been at 3.7 and while yes, Sather is going to win these things each time out, getting this done at 3.075 probably means that Sather didn't cross 3 per until today.
No matter how you look at this, Stepan was going to lose. The leverage and options made that a well known thing.
It's a case of how much loss did Stepan holding out mitigate?
If Sather was at 2.95 until today, Stepan got himself an extra 250k.
Another thing that we didn't know and I haven't read all the posts just yet so I still do not know.
What does the structure of the deal look like as that is every bit as important to these players as is the AAV.
If Stepan is at 2.5 this year, then his QO after next season is 3.65
That's huge should he stagnate developementally.
What looks like a loss, may just look that way.
They don't play until Thursday, so they'll probably get close to 4 days back in NY to practice and spend time with their families (Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, travel Tuesday night or Wednesday morning)

Correct.
If the offer was $2.9M, his holdout ended up netting him an additional $350k. In relative terms that's a pittance, but it's still over 5%.
Right. You don't know where the leaks came from, and what the motivation was. The leaks all proved to be close to the final numbers, but apparently not exact. Who knows.
Fair deal for both sides. Glad it's done!

Change is good.
And likely more than both his mother and father make in a year. It matters, regardless of the fact that on a relative basis it seems insubstantial to those of us sitting on the sidelines watching.
I heard they offered under 3 originally. If that is the case than what you posted is wrong. Hell even if they originally offered 3 than it's still 200k which is a good 3 or 4 years salary for many folks

I have been lol. For longer actually. I thought the first game was Tuesday, not Thursday. You get used to the time difference then come back to another time zone, only to go back to that first zone a couple days later. Could wear on there legs big time.
Now knowing the game is two days later it makes more sense.

That 3.2 number may not have been accurate. Rangers may have come up from 2.9 and I think their original number was lower than that.
Whatever, it's done.

So glad this is over. The board was becoming difficult to read.
Looking forward to arguing over FUN stuff, like which forward should have been demoted, what lineup should have been iced, etc...

Agreed.
Mama and Papa Stepan just got a nice retirement house on Lake Superior.

They also need ice to practice on until they play Phoenix, not sure how well that works out when you show up 5 days early.
