serge 904 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 And Im a big believer (still!) in long term deals for young players, but wow, 7.5mill for O'Reilly seems a lot. Kessel at $6.75 seems like a bargain for now Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Why? I dont get why a buyout is a bad thing for the player, financially any other contract they got from anyone is pure gravy. You'd have to ask ROR but obviously he was interested in a buyout-proof contract. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 I think it would be very hard for Stamkos to go from contending for the cup in the finals to the leafs. Very true but he is still young enough to lead the Leafs to a cup in 3-5 years. He maybe was slighted a bit not getting top billing in the finals and there is the whole hometown thing if that means anything Link to post Share on other sites

Dubey 1,035 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I'm a big ROR fan but that deal is a little nuts. Link to post Share on other sites
doox 15 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 There was a lot of noise before the Kessel trade about Saad coming back to his hometown to play in Pittsburgh...now I'm really glad this didn't happen after seeing his deal. Link to post Share on other sites
