Speculation: Roster Building/Rumor Thread XVI

[rangers1314]

he’s not with that NTC

He can still be traded to half the league without his consent, it's not a killer.

 

[Thirty One]

I don’t think we were going to get Stutzle for Goodrow

Not now we aren't. It's backloaded!

 

[gravey9]

Love to include a LNTC and a poison pill year 4 when production drops off a cliff and you can’t dump the contract on a team with cap space who want to save money. Goddamn that’s beyond stupid.

He doesn't produce much offensively now. It's not fallling off a cliff. His body would fail him towards the end like Cally. But Cally was 35 when he retired. He was still pretty useful as a bottom 6 player until the end.

I'm willing to bet the AAV came down from roughly 4m with the years and limited NTC.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I said it a few days ago and I'll say it again.

If Goodrow signed this deal with the Isles, etc.... How hard would this board be laughing hysterically?

It's not that bad a deal. He is a player we need and this contract can be moved in year 5 if needed. S

 

[H00fHearted]

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

I wouldn’t worry about that too much. I expect that those teams will be on his NTC list anyway.

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

 

[Doctyl]

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

That’s never been how rounding works

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

That would round down to 3.6

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

That's, uh, not how rounding works.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

Since it’s below 3.65 you round down you ignoramus

 

[Raspewtin]

okay whatever where are we trading Buch and Strome tho

 

[NikC]

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

Fast didn't have 2 SC rings under his belt

 

[Gardner McKay]

Bye bye PB. We will miss you…

So... where is he going?

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Goodrows contract is fine

Philadelphia just dumped Ghost for a few draft picks, I’m sure the Rangers will be able to move Goodrows contract in 4 years if they need too

 

[FireGerardGallant]

I wouldn’t worry about that too much. I expect that those teams will be on his NTC list anyway.

I have no issue with the limited no trade, shouldnt change much if we need to deal him. The contract would just become a lot easier to move/buyout later down the line if it was frontloaded.

 

[Crease]

Coyotes reminding everyone that there is always a home for your bad contracts if you throw in a second round pick.

 

[Daves a mess]

I'm rounding up. 3.7 it is

Lol. Nope

 

[gravey9]

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

Not nec true. The original expectation was 6x4. The AAV came down roughly 350k. it's a NTC not a NMC. He can also be sent down if necessary if his body completely fails him.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

That would round down to 3.6

Yes, but I want to round UP

 

[zlev]

Fast didn't have 2 SC rings under his belt

yeah and he didnt play on a loaded team that was 18M over the cap either

 

[Doctyl]

So... where is he going?

Maybe I’m misreading that, but I interpreted that as a reaction to the Goodrow deal

 

[Off Sides]

Maybe I am unfamiliar with some sort of rules about Bonuses

Yet I don't think bonuses are subject to escrow, so I am not sure why they did not front load the deal using the maximum bonus money?

Actually I guess that would end up making the contract easier to buyout in terms of real dollars.

 

[Fansince1992]

It's not that bad a deal. He is a player we need and this contract can be moved in year 5 if needed. S

Which means he's ours for 4 years when he is 32. I can live with that

 

[PuckLuck3043]

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.

No it wont

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

If there’s a bustle in your Goodrow, don’t be alarmed now - it’s just a spring clean for the May Queen.

so bored…
