barf. not better than strome. was the extra year or two really worth not going up 400k for copp? bleh

what a f***ing steal

 

[Raspewtin]

i really hate the 7 years but the AAV isn’t totally offensive, it’s fine

 

[Machinehead]

I like it. I don't love it. I like it.

 

[mrmovies779]

Way too much term.Like the player,hate this contract

 

[Nickmo82]

A couple of years too many, but oh well. At least we'll get better at faceoffs!

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I don't like it.

Glad to be done with Strome though.

 

[Fitzy]

I'll wait to decide on this until I know the NMC/NTC details.

If he can be moved within two years, then it's a solid solid move.

 

[LOFIN]

The AAV is not horrible but the term is... Knowing us it fill have a full NMC for the last years as well. That's what really matters. Need to be able to get rid of bad contracts. We already have a few big ones that we should move but can't because our moron GMs keep giving the players leverage in turning down trades.

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

Copp costed the same! Trocheck is significantly better. Good deal IMO. Trocheck is a nice piece

 

[nevesis]

Term is insane, but the team is in win now mode. Worry about that later.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Was hoping for under $5M at 7 years . . .

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

The team is better after this deal.

The 7 years is rough but the AAV is not an overpayment for everything he brings.

Trocheck is better overall player than Strome and unlike Copp he is actually a center.

Not a super awesome contract but not a disaster. Rangers needed to keep the cap hit down. Hopefully no NMC but that’s what happens when you get top FAs. This is a good deal. Maybe not a great deal but it’s a good deal.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

That term is actually insane.

 

[Phrasing]

Not really happy with the term either, but AAV is fine. Really hope there's no NMC (or at least just a limited NTC) in the second half of his contract.

 

[duhmetreE]

7 years?

 

[HANK30]

Not going to miss Strome missing wide open nets...

 

[Trxjw]

If he can hit that 60 point mark with Panarin while giving you all of the other things he does really well, it's a great AAV. Team is clearly kicking open the door and going for it.

The term is how you got that AAV that price.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I think I need to just accept that these GMs don't really care about term. It's something they'll pretend to care about for negotiation purposes but they all know they're most likely not going to be with the team in seven years so that's the easy barganing chip to give up to get the deal done.

I'm kind of meh on this but I like it more than Strome.

 

[Hire Sather]

Should've gotten a better bargain AAV for that term.

 

[Leonardo87]

Rangers never learn.

 

[Kaapo Takko]

Fine with trochek. Would have liked lower cap with that term though.
