This is a steal- new best contract in hockey.
Wow! Amazing!
In 2-3 years, this will be the best contract in hockey if not next year. I was a little worried about Forsling, Reinhart, and Montour all being UFA’s but this is a huge step in the right direction if we are trying to retain all three guys.
Zito now finessing his own players!
/s
I would lay down my life for bill Zito. Best GM in the league and we are spoiled
Zito lays an egg on the Golden Goose! 5.75?!? Thats free-er than Tarasenko was comparatively. He’s worth 9. Hes the best actual defender on earth. I figured theyd florida him down to like 7 or so. But 5.75? Free. This is outrageously good. Cup contenders for the foreseeable future.
Hard to believe he was a waiver’s claim.
Holy shit we might actually be able to keep everyone
Less than what Flames paid Weegar, and Forsy is 3 years younger. Great value!
Anyone that understands cap-fu better than me.. will this deal hurt our chances for Reino’s extension?
Zito is my dad
Zito saved this franchise
With the amount of buy in these guys have I wouldn’t be surprised if Zito had very candid conversions during negotiations about what hey could all get paid to keep the core together. Forsling taking a team friendly deal puts the ball in Reinhart’s court to do the same
