Wow good for him!!! I bet it’s a team friendly contract… he wants to remain a Golden Knight for his career and would take a less than he could as a UFA so he can stay in Vegas

 

[Regal]

Hope he got a no movement clause

 

[dirtydanglez]

Wow good for him!!! I bet it’s close to the same amount he’s making.. he wants to remain a Golden Knight for his career and would take a little less he could make just so he can stay in Vegas

that historically has not worked out well

 

[The Crypto Guy]

He's pretty injury prone so that's a nice contact he got signed at 29.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Just had a baby somewhat recently and is starting a family… must be estatic knowing he gets to stay put

TSN is talking about how much of a bargain it is cause he could easily use Nurse, Petro etc etc as comparables for what he wants

Now watch him be traded June 30, 2024 before new contract kicks in and he only has a 5 team No Trade Protection

[That's actually a CBA question, that "feels" like it shouldn't be something that could happen]

 

[Jerzey Devil]

Is that the longest contract in Vegas history?

 

[mundyc3]

Looks like the Knights saved around a million a year compared to what you might expect Theodore to get on the open market.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Great deal for vegas

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Great deal

 

[credulous]

Is that the longest contract in Vegas history?

they signed hanifin to an 8 year extension like 4 months ago

8 year Mark Stone, Noah Hanifin. 7 years Alex Tuch, Alex Pietrangelo.

 

[MooMiN]

Who won the bet in the value thread?

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

8 year Mark Stone, Noah Hanifin. 7 years Alex Tuch, Alex Pietrangelo.

I think he was more/less trying to trash talk VGK and suggesting that they have players come and go so much

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Great for Theodore. It's usually Alvin and Simon getting the inital attention.

 

[abj]

Good deal by Vegas. They bet to the playoffs.

 

[theslatcher]

8 year Mark Stone, Noah Hanifin. 7 years Alex Tuch, Alex Pietrangelo.

Karlsson 8 years as well.

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

As a Wings fan: f***

 

[mundyc3]

Karlsson 8 years as well.

Knew I was forgetting at least one.

 

[D Wakaluk]

So this was the illness that kept him away last game

 

[HanSolo]

Great deal in today's market. He could've fetched around 8.5-8.7, maybe even 9 to a team desperate enough for a guy like him.

 

[sxvnert]

Fair for both sides.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Surprised he took a discount. He'd have easily gotten 9 in UFA. Still not sure about wrapping up so much cap in the top 3 on D with how the wings look but we'll see.

Great contract for vegas
