Solid bridge

But but but he was gunna sign an offer sheet

Nice Bridge deal. If he can do another 25+ goals in these next couple seasons he'll get a nice raise.

Guess that revenge will have to wait

"What are you wearing, 'Jake from State Farm'?"

"Um...the Blue Note?"

 

[Zirakzigil]

Very neighborly deal

That's how you take care of your big RFA's. Oiler's management should be taking notes.

Big piece of our future. Good on Army getting him locked up so you avoid a potential offer sheet. *Extremely loud and obnoxious cough.

Very nice bridge deal for both sides. And he’s still a RFA at the conclusion.

Now we need to get Hofer re-signed too!

Or maybe at least prioritize the RFAs over using all of your cap space on middle of the lineup UFAs the first day of free agency? And then hope you can sign the RFAs for pennies on the dollar since that’s all you have left? Just a thought.

My first reaction was that it seems kind of risky to sign him to a bridge like that. But then...i don't know that he's really going to be more than a ~25G scorer who may break 30 if everything goes right. So he's probably not going to break the bank then anyway, and ultimately going to just land in that Jake DeBrusk sort of contract territory in the end either way. And this way, i guess you get a couple years of him at a much cheaper "bridge deal" price. Plus a couple more years to make sure he is what he is, before you pay for that.

I think Debrusk is a good statistical expectation for Neighbours…Neighbours is more physical though.

He’s a winning complimentary player for sure. I think the bridge was good for both sides here.

Blues fans are lucky cause I hate my neighbours.

Dude should do advertisement for State Farm.


Like a good neighbour, State Farm is there!

And it's Jake, from State Farm.

He's a guy, so he's hideous

Wrong thread

Like a good Neighbours, Jake from State Farm is there. If by there you mean in the opposing goalies face. If you mean the correct positioning in the defensive zone...eh, it's a work in progress

Figured since he had not signed in the summer that he'd play out the season to see if a long term deal made more sense for him. Solid bridge deal for him. Would have 2 more RFA years after this bridge deal.
