Thread: What the pens should do this offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Thielraven</b></div><div>Jarry is getting at least 7 on the next deal. He is a number one on alot of teams. My thought is why haven't the penguins extended him yet? They must have resevervations and are waiting to see how the market unfolds</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Imagine874859</b></div><div>Nah he wont get at least 7. At most 7. Has to prove himself in the yoffs first. He hasn't been extended yet cause Hextall hasn't done anything. He hasn't made a trade in more than 7 months and we are currently struggling to keep our playoff hope alive.</div></div>

Jarry isn’t getting 7 mil. He would be lucky to get 6. As mentioned, Jarry would have to prove himself in the playoffs and potentially lead them on a deep run, which I don’t see happening. There are only 3 goalie that make 7+ mil right now: Vasy, Bobrovsky, and Price. All of whom have won Vezinas and Vasy with multiple cups. Plus Florida deeply regrets handing Bob that contract. Look at some of the goalie signings over the last few years. Merzlikins (5.4 mil), Campbell (5 mil), Saros (5 mil), Shesterkin (5.66 mil), Grubauer (5.9 mil after he just won a cup), Demko (5 mil), etc. That’s the going rate for goalies. Jarry is probably looking at around 5.5ish mil a year deal from the pens barring him being unbeatable the rest of season and in the playoffs. 6 mil if the pens are feeling generous.

Thread: Bertuzzi
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mikearky</b></div><div>Sure be cause he has stated repeatedly that he wants to go to Puttsburgh. Oh wait he has not so, good luck getting older and farther behind.

I love he is not worth that but he we will sign him next year and he will be a star.

Funny he has repeatedly stated he wants to resign here. We ha e the cap space and you Pens do not.</div></div>

Nobody said anything about him wanting to sign in “Puttsburgh.” Him not saying anything about wanting to sign in Pittsburgh or anywhere for that matter a year before he is a FA means nothing. You are just talking out of your a$$, attempting to put words in other peoples mouth, and weakening your already nonexistent credibility.

What did you expect him to say??? “No way I want to resign in Detroit. This team has been irrelevant for a decade+. Why would I want to sign here.” Of course he will say the right stuff. He isn’t an idiot. You should take notes. The pens get Dumo and Zuck off the books plus a likely cap increase next year. They will have plenty of space to pull it off, but I’m sure they appreciate your concern. I shouldn’t have to spoon feed you this information. You are obviously new to this whole “hockey” thing. Welcome to hockey!
