Already posted them in the Habs News & Notes thread but:
Renaud Lavoie 4 year contract for Lars Eller. 3.5M$ AAV #canadiens #tvasports
WTH ! 3.5 per year ? how this is possible ? he was looking for 3-1 and signed 3.5 on 4 years deal ?
Four year deal buys two UFA years.
My guess is they figure he will improve and by year 2, 3, 4 it will be a great deal.
Otherwise....."da faq" is right.
No, DD is underpaid for what he brings while Eller is overpaid. Eller should be feeling great.
If he can put up 45pts annually, this can be a good deal. But for a 30 point center, it's rich.
Sure. And Bourque's deal could be good too if he played like he gave a shit.
But we saw him for a dozen games this year before the playoffs started.
Not too thrilled by this.
Please tell me that he didn't receive a NTC.
It matters.Does it matter?
At 3.5m....if he doesnt improve we cant trade him anyway.
