Thread: Fix the Canucks
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FlySharks2006</b></div><div>His production, etc are that of a $6m ish defenseman. That isn’t how money works. In a shorter deal they make less money because the cap rises over time. That’s why he’s projected to make that on a 4 year deal. An 8 year deal he only gets slightly above 7. (He won’t get an 8 year deal)

Arbitration is statistically more likely to favor the team than the player since it’s data driven. He better settle prior to arb or he’s likely to get a one or two year deal in the 4-5 range.

You should probably get the fundamentals of how the business works before commenting on business things.</div></div>

Did I say Hronek is going to be 8, no. I said his agent has asked for 8. Agents always ask for more then they know they are going to get. The fact that you've signed guys for far less then what the market or people far smarter then you or I have projected shows you're the one who needs the business lesson and you should follow your own advice about not commenting unless you understand the nuances of the business.

Lekker is going to be a middle six, a third line W most likely. Again, if he does turn into something, it’ll be 3-4 years from now and the Canucks window will be closing.

You’re right. I was being hopeful Hronek would take a discount to help the Canucks because he likes playing with Quinn. He’s projected to make $6M. I should have just gone with what he’s likely to make.</div></div>

Hronek's agent is asking for and hasn't moved off of getting 8 million per year. Because of his production, ice time and arb rights he's going to get over 7 million on a one year deal. He isn't taking less then that especially long term.
