Not sure what compells me to say it, but: Lower. Put me down for $2. Not completely confident in it

Thats a tricky one though. Almost exactly where I think he'd sign.

I actually think it's $5M, so I should have gone with that. $5.5M tops. hence I went in the middle.

I just don't see him signing for less than $5M - nobody signs for reasonable money as a UFA.

If Richards hits the market too, that drops Weiss to arguably 4th on the 1C depth chart for UFA's, though he's considerably younger than the others.

Wow. So Vinny is set for life now.

Nearly 33 million dollars spread out over the next 16 years. Sign me up for that deal.

wasn't he set for life before the buyout?

He is used to a life style of 7.7 mil a year and is only going to get 2 per now?

Sounds like someone like the leafs will need to sign him to a 6 mil per deal just to transition himself into this low brow lifestyle.

Fair enough. Its really too hectic to judge at this point. A lot of stuff going on at the moment. I guess if Bozak thinks he can get 5.5 in the UFA, damn near anything is possible.

I just feel like he's on the lower end of the quality out there. If Lecav gets 6 or close to it, then Weiss shouldn't be getting 5.5, nor bozak.

If we cant afford to lockup phanuef and kessel, we're doing it wrong. Pens have managed to lockup crsoby and malkin while having decent depth.

I'm hoping we can get kessel signed to an 8 year deal at 6.5 per, max 7.
Phaneuf is really important to our team and i think we need to keep him. However, we shouldnt have to keep him at 6.5 per. I'm hoping for a 5 year deal at 6 per.

I've said it before, if guys like Streit/Grabbo etc are getting 5 mil, Crosby must wonder why he's not getting 25 million a year

Did they buy out Jankowski?

Just saw it.
O'Brien isn't bad, Sarich is getting old.

Tanguay for Jones is weird though, they take on more salary and lose production

My off-season fantasies involve Carrie Underwood and at least one other hottie.

I've been off the grid all day - can I get a summary?

Thanks in advance...

They get younger and tougher pick up a Half mil. Maybe they think he can get back to where he was 2 years ago?

Wait, do players actually lose money when they're bought out? I thought it was just a cap relief/restructuring of the payout.

4mil for 40 points

If I was Nonis I would talk to Lecavilier and soon to be bought out Richards together and say would it be nice to play together again, and I might even trade my jack ass captain in a Letang deal. So you wanna win a cup we got the money to do this.
