People acting like Perry got 2 million. 250 k of his salary is in bonuses. Meh, it's not the worst.
He complained about ice time multiple times in the media this year, so it's believable on that front.
If he's not waiving his NMC, then he'll get his chance to redeem himself on the ice if he can stay healthy and get moved at the trade deadline if he doesn't. Can't see a situation where they buy him out though, that would be 4 years of penalties for a temporary problem.
Depends on what the bonuses are. Are they meaningful games played/performance metrics, or are they fluff metrics to allow us to push part of the hit to next year.
So it's actually 1.15M. 250k in performance bonuses. Not worried about this at all.
They could sign a good vet at league minimum for that role, bring back Gagner for the good locker room harmony.They must like Perry in the room.

Perry contract mainly, but then went off about Pickard getting 1mil 2 years.Whats he cryin about?
That's the problem. Kane, with his blend of toughness and hands, is a damn unicorn. You can't find those types of players much anymore, you have to draft them. I'd be ok with giving him another shot, since he did have to recover from a horrific hand injury and also the sports hernia but if he's a problem in the room... you drop him.If we lose/buyout Kane we 100% need to add some toughness.
If that's true, he's a selfish fkn player and hasn't matured. Want him back but man .. Don't like this...Yup. I don't know what the problem is. Some speculating that new management is pissed that he didn't go on LTIR and there was the rumour that he whined about his ice time at the exit interview
His contract becomes an NTC by the TDL so maybe he's gone then. What a mess

I'm usually glass half full but this is a dumb signing. Perry is cooked and the Oilers need to get younger and faster. If the contract was buriable then sure but this one doesn't seem to be.
Sorry, if he burnt his bridge here that is all on him. This is a team that wants to win. If he's not doing his part he can f*** right off.
He was a very useful player in the regular season. I think if you load manage him with 40-50 games in the regular season you might see him be a bit more effective come playoff time.Depends on what the bonuses are.

I'm just surprised, he didn't do a lot this year. $1.4 total seems really high.
Henrique is probably still asking for his wife’s permission to stay in Edmonton
Its what that type of depth is worth, not a bad contract at all. Its just too bad that we dont have a ton of space right nowPeople acting like Perry got 2 million. 250 k of his salary is in bonuses. Meh, it's not the worst.
Some saying Friedman reported that things have gone "very very sour" with Kane and that he might get bought out.
If that's the case, and he wouldn't waive for a trade, he's going to have burned up any and all goodwill with a fanbase that has been (mostly) very supportive with him.
That was Brown. Already done and signed.Stauffer alluding to the Oilers being in on a R shot D as a depth 8th / call up.. smaller guy. I'm going to go with Boqvist, which isn't a bad shot to take. Around 200 games NHL experience, is what he said. So it all lines up with Boqvist.
Unless it’s 10 games played lolThat's much better IMO.
At least we know we're making the Stanley Cup finals against this year.
Edmundson is a 30 year old bottom pairing Dman. That contract both term and AAV is crazy, If you're giving a player like that term, you get him at around 1.5-2m. 3.8m over 4 years is baffling.He was really good with the Leafs. Made me wish we got him at the TDL last year.

400k lol
