Pretty decent deal. I think the cash is low, but at the same time Raffi is getting 3 year.

Like the deal. Not sure about how reliable he will be come playoff time given he is suspension prone. He is always one hit away from not being there and he could of been that deciding factor in the sharks/kings series.

Shocked. Thought he was KHL after the latest suspension.

WOW! Two million a year to be an a$$hole. I wish I could skate better! You guys could've picked up Avery for less than that. Sharks will regret this signing.

Solid signing. The third year would scare me a bit as a Sharks fan since he turns 32 this season, but he should be worth it for the first 2 seasons.

Yeah it is. Kiss the dreams of some Canucks fans of having the most hated line in hockey history goodbye - Lappy, Cooke and Torres.

I think all 3 are pretty solid bottom 6 players, but yes you can't have more than one of those guys and I'd be weary of keeping them on my roster for more than 2 years or so. The Sharks don't have any guys with the rep of a Burrows/Lappy so Torres should be solid for them. I do think that he'll slow down during the third year of this deal though.

Congrats on having one less roster spot available when he inevitably gets suspended. Again. Dudes a disgrace to the game

Ooooo. Good response! One question though- how exactly is your comment relevent to raffi "suspension" torres being reupped for 3 yrs? Your team just made a dumb move that will come back to haunt them. Just like it did to every team hes played for
