[Report] Utah extends Guenther on 8 year x $7M deal


Recommended Posts

Its a good bet for Utah to make. 

 

Down the stretch he was probably aside from Keller, Arizona's best player on the ice on most nights. Right now a bit of an overpay, but lots of potential to out perform the contract. Wouldn't be surprised at all at some point this season, he overtakes Nick Schmaltz's spot on the top line to play with Keller.

They have cap space and if he keeps improving it will be a steal in years 3-7. Why not use the cap now when you have it.

That Utah franchise has some good young talent. That Russian D they got is one of the most massive men I have seen, his hand was as big as Bettman’s head and Bettman is all head. 
They have had and have tonnes of pics too.

That's a crazy number for a guy with 78 games played in the league regardless of potential.  Some team is going to get burnt bad, most likely a few being real.

 

The numbers the Senators and Sabres threw out have completely broken the market.

That is my take on it, overpay now when you don’t care about the cap and aren’t in a winning window… that saved an expensive post-bridge deal coming up when you do want to add pieces and have other raises to worry about.

The Empties thought Yzerboy was stupid with contracts for young players. This one beats even him for being a dumbo.

Don't we all wish we signed Hughes and Petey to this deal right away.

 

with these style of deals If they don't work out before 26 you can buy them out at 1/3 of the price. 

 

Yup, I like this deal for UT. Gets a top notch upcoming forward signed for one of their only big contracts. I like Guenther though. He's oozing offensive skill.
