it’s the NTC through the whole contract that bothers me. I wouldn’t care as much if it only went through the first 4 years. but all 6 makes it tough for him to move.

If the contract was frontloaded it would be easier to trade to teams who are on actual budgets besides the salary cap (IE Ottawa).

NTC’s and limited NTC’s are pretty much standard fare for UFA’s with any value. Just be glad it’s not a full NMC. This guy will be a moveable asset (if need be) down the road and his contract is market value. Not sure what all the bitching is about.

So in years 5 and 6, he is easily movable. I don’t see the issue.

It matters if we want to move him, because not all teams are like the New York Rangers

People are forgetting too about escrow. It's to Goodrow's benefit to have the money later in the contract, but the last 2 years are still cheap.

It's all so tiresome
Rangers didn't get a single break with the entire contract. Overpaid in term, dollars and added a NTC.

This is how I feel about it too. It's possible year 4 might suck. But it's not a big deal.

dont hate the Goodrow contract as much as everyone else but it shows that Gorton letting Fast go last season was absolutely a fire-able offense

He would be, if the contract was frontloaded. Now it's backloaded, so good luck getting anyone willing to take on that deal. Makes him almost impossible to move.

I am going to be very sad when Drury trades PB for a used piece of sandpaper and an opened box of grits.

I like the player.. I dont like the contract all that much, but again we just saw the Islanders AND Philly move much harder contracts to move. The Rangers will also be able to do so by year 5. Its not that big of a deal, as long as we dont pay more "grit" the same kind of money for another player.

Well he was basically a UFA, so there was no reason for him to give us a discount.

It does to teams who don't have the money NYR have.
I see this contract as basically a 5 year deal. After that 1.25SB, he's only owed 1.25 of salary in his final year. You can find a team to take that off your hands.

Exactly, it matters to Arizona or Ottawa. Frontloading Brassard got us Zibanejad.

The buyout of Goodrow after two full season isn’t crippling:
200k credit
100k credit
1,150k hit
3,650k hit
1,258k hit x 4 seasons
Sometimes these signings don’t work out at all. Think we had this in mind when designing the contract.

Eh its really only year 6 Thats movable. Also Im pretty sure the amount of money the player has left on a contract effects the buyout penalty.

Correct. Salary structure is literally the reason Brassard got the return that he did. We even waited to pay his bonus first.
