The thing is they are also signing the 4 year contract at the same time so the other contract is already valid isn't it?

I'm pretty sure the insurance on a given contract starts at the start date of said contract. So the 4 year would kick in as official in september of that year.

Wow Kadri wants a similar contract to Tavares!!! 5 years, $5.5 mill per. Well I guess Kadri aint gonna be playing anytime soon. I mean Kadri had a decent 48 game season but he needs to prove he can do it over 82 games. The smart thing for him to do is sign a 1 or 2 year short team deal. Than he can cash in on a bigger raise.

you are actually saying schneider, is better than luongo, in playoffs.
- Mapleleafs_91

Mind showing me where I said that?

You think keeping a declining, old goalie (WHo you think isnt on the decline) with a terrible contract was a better decision at keeping the younger, better goalie.


way to go.

Further, I could see Kadri being more of a bridge, but Franson has played in the League for 4 or 5 years, is 26 years old and probly shouldn't be pushed into a bridge.

Is the team young? no, so who gives a (frank) Luongo will be good for another couple years then they could worry about it then

Well I think that would be the only thing we would have to check. Depending on the rule this would be a way out. I would think it is the minute pen hits paper it becomes official.

Oh.. And you think it was a good decision to trade Schneider, and buy out Luongo in a few years.


Yeah... This is truly hilarious.


Man. We should have re-signed Giggy to a terrible contract and traded Reimer..

Thank god GMs dont think like you.


No teams would ever rebuild, and they would sign crappy players to ludicrous contracts.

The contract does, but the actual money isn't insured until its implemented, I'm fairly certain but should be checked.

Signing Komisarek to that contract was a good decision because...well... Burke could just worry about him later

Oh... Okay.


Rebuilding apparently takes 1 player... Who isnt even a top 5 pick.


Yup. You should be a GM.

Well if he is, he's an idiot.
- Scabeh


If he thinks he is even in the same ballpark as Tavares, then I hope he signs an offer sheet elsewhere.

Actually, I hope he does anyway.

Kadri put up most of his point when the REAL NHL players were getting their legs under them after a long layoff. He pretty much disappeared after that. Take whatever draft picks we can and let someone else deal with this Ahole.

Franson. Ditto.

6M is way too much. Something around Henriques deal from a range of 4-5M to a 6+ year deal... think like mike richards or jeff carter deals or actually one player on our team, JVR is a good example.
- Mapleleafs_91


he's none of those players...and he's certainly no Tavares not even 1/2 a Tavares.

JVR has more potential I believe...he's got size and had actually played in the league for a full season before he got a new contract

Hes not, but Tavares is now discounted, if he was to re-up today he'd be getting franchise bucks 7.5 or more for sure. Signing Kadri at 5 today has a risk, but 5 mil is a 65 point guy now, which he should be at least. 5 million in 3 years could easily be a steal for Kadri, unless he just tanks.
