Confirmed Signing with Link: [SEA] G Joey Daccord signs extension with the Kraken (5 years, $5M AAV)

[Fuhrious]

Yeah Demko will be back and Silovs almost beat the Oilers in playoffs but keep coping. One of Canucks strength is goaltending.

This one aged like milk in less than 12 hours, eh boss? lmao...

Hard to imagine any Oilers fan chest thumping after the first game of the season. Take your little rivalry elsewhere.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Kraken give out some weird contracts, man.

 

[wolfgaze]

ngl i dont even know who this is

Don't know him either but his name sounds like a Wise Guy's street name.... "Joey Da Cord once strangled two guys in a bar with an extension cord"

could def have ran with the Luppertazi crew

That’d probably sting a little if I gave a single **** about the Oilers…

One game and you are determining how the teams going to be like..eh boss?? Guess Oilers wont make playoffs. Funny overreaction to first game of season with Canucks playing rusty.

Hope neither Canucks or Oilers make the playoffs tbqfh, that’d be hilarious.

No no...that would not be hilarious.

Swayman did it, he reset the goalie market, the madman.

But Daccord was pretty good last year, even if I don't think he was 5x5 good.

It’s another Ottawa cast off who was better when out of Ottawa

The Ullmark contract would scare me if I were them, even if I do think he’s a great goalie

Lazy troll job. He had a whopping 9 starts with Ottawa and wasn't protected during the expansion draft because they had too many goalies. One expects to improve after 9 starts. And, #dorion.

I really liked his game though.

 

[Team_Spirit]

He was Vezina caliber midway last season he's slept on

We have seen worse goalie deals recently like Campbell and Korpisalo

 

[Chuck Norris Trophy]

Teams are trying to re-sign their goalies now before the Shesterkin contract completely resets the market.

My first thought as well. Interesting times we are living.

 

[Cup or Bust]

This might turn out as rough as the Jack Campbell contract. Definitely a big risk for a relatively unproven goalie. It's hard to believe a goalie with that track record would even command 5 million a season and for 5 years but then again, the Oilers did basically the same with Campbell. Hopefully for Seattle's sake it doesn't turn out like that one.

 

[nergish]

When I heard on the radio Daccord got a 5-year, 5 million dollar deal - I literally assumed they meant $1 x 5.

It’s not a troll job. It’s just a fact of another goalie doing much better when leaving Ottawa.

Ya think? He only played 9 games. Its rare a goalie doesn't improve after their 9th NHL game.

Do you even know how he played in those games? Do better.

This is false. All kinds of goalies doing worse after a cup of coffee.

When wa s the last time a goalie did better in Ottawa than somewhere else?

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

If he ends up being the starter / repeats last year this could be good value but that’s ALOT of dollars in your goalies for Seattle

It would be pretty shocking if they don’t buyout Grubauer next summer. $1.6 million x 4 penalty is going to be perfectly palatable to correct that mistake. So you’ll almost certainly see Daccord with his new deal starting in the fall of ‘25 paired with an in-house or inexpensive back-up option.

 

[playasRus]

Bit of risk but decent reward too.

Kid always showed promise while a prospect here and has generally shined when called upon. Would have to regress significantly at this point to make this a bad contract.

 

[BKarchitect]

So far so good - Daccord was great last year and some didn't believe it or recognize his name and he's been even better this year. 8 wins out of 12 starts, 2nd among all starters in GSAA. The splits with Grubauer behind the same team over the last two seasons are rather astonishing - not that anybody thinks Grubauer is good anymore, but Daccord is legit...fills the net, composed, athletic.

It's crazy that it seems he still has international options. Assuming you take 3 starters to this winter's 4 nations tournament, he should absolutely have a shot behind Hellebuyck and Otter for Team USA if Demko is still coming back and Swayman still struggling. But I think he is still eligible for Team Canada - in which case, to me - he could and should absolutely start for Canada.

He was leaning towards Switzerland I believe, but as you say nothing has been set in stone yet. It won't be by playing in this tourney either.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

A lot of the reaction from this signing was people assuming because they weren't familiar with the player, that means that player is a nobody. Along with not contextualizing where 5M places Daccord in the pecking order with a rising cap.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Team USA should promise him games at the no-Russians cup, just to keep him away from Team Canada.

He is going to go to Team Canada and steal the starting job there. He probably isn't the third best American goalie right now, but with the way he is playing, USA should do everything in their power to prevent him from being selected by Team Canada.
