BIG BOSS HERE👇🏻
LFG!
Would have loved to see more term on his deal as I feel like he is still just scratching the surface of what he can do but his side obviously thinks that too and is banking on more development for a bigger future payday.
I’m glad this was a bridge contract. Without physicality, his game is serviceable, if he plays like the physical force his size offers, then he becomes very valuable.
Next is kj and fantili, but they’re the core, lock them up long term
Got scared when I read $8 million but that’s total lol
Would’ve liked more term but hey it’s more important that he’s back imo
Two more years of Big Boss.
Love to see it.
This contract is what I would call a “trade bait” contract
Let’s go tear up some ice!!!
I feel like he probably pushed to get the short term so he could prove himself and earn a higher AAV
I’m just glad he wasn’t offer sheeted. Happy to have him bridged in time for the big cap raise
Vronk
Honk, honk!
Here comes Vronk!
What happens after this new contract expires? He still an RFA?
Hurrah. Big Boss on job!
Let’s goooo! 94 long days left.
We’ve got quite a few bridge deals on the books now. If we think they’re part of the future I’m hoping we get them signed long term sooner rather than later.
That’s a higher aav than I would’ve expected, but im glad ro have him signed regardless.
