That makes the Provorov deal look so much worse lol
Oh keep an eye on this one. The kings could being down the hammer. It wasn’t just Vegas accused of tampering. We been hearing for weeks Gavrikov was going to New York.
Just proves small market teams have to overpay to get/keep players. Johnny was an anomaly and we are now back to normal of overpaying to retain talent for players that are UFA eligible
This makes Don look awful. Gavrikov is a better player.
We basically did the severson deal again 2 years later. Horrendous. Provy was wildly inconsistent prior to last year and he was ok last year but not more than $6-$6.5M player.
So, in summary, Gavrikov, the best pending UFA defenseman, gets 7×7 to switch teams, while we pay 8.5×7 for Ivan Provorov to stay on this team. Brilliant work here.
Can yall just chill tf out?
Gavrikov was never coming here for 7, 8.5 or anything else. He’s been tied to NYR for weeks and clearly thats where he wanted to be. Assuming Don probably knew that, he was correct to sign Provy even at inflated dollars…we would have been much much worse off if he walked considering what’s on the market now (nothing).
Man I fucking hate the Rangers
Gavrikov has a full no move for 5 years and it’s almost all signing bonus. Not all contracts are equal.
Now K’Andre Miller is going to Carolina. Clearly a divisional trade wasn’t a stopper. Another miss
God you people are so insufferable, the contract is fine please stop letting personal issues with Provy get in the way of logical hockey decisions
