So Hanafin signs for $7.35 mil for 8 years. This is concerning for the Nucks as Hronek will be looking for more than that. His offensive numbers are better, and his defensive analytics are quite a bit stronger. Have to figure $8-8.5 million annually, for 8 years.
It worries me as his analytics show he has hugely benefited from playing beside Quinn Hughes. He's definitely okay on the defensive side of the game, but he's not excellent. Seems like a lot of money for him but he's a better player than Hanafin and a year younger. Signing a 26 year old to an 8 year contract is a heck of a lot better than a 28 year old FA. A dman can still be really good a 32-34 years of age towards the end of the contract. Most 34-36 year olds are getting to be pretty marginal by that age.
It also mean Hughes gets an absolutely massive term when his contract runs out...........like $12 million easily.
So Fogghorn, what is your handle on CanucksArmy? I’m a regular poster there.
phew!...........I was hoping it wasn't you, would make me wonder why you had gotten so pissy in your old age.
I tend to avoid the comments. The asshat % is just too high for me.
I have about 10 of those blocked which makes it much better. There are a handful of high quality posters there that keep me engaged, and I like to keep the writers on their toes too!
