GDT #21 Caps at Panthers W 4-1

<< < (15/15)

alta:
$8.5M x 7 years is a tad high for a 4th liner.

Mickstix:
2nd highest paid Cap on the ice. Highest paid Cap, per contract, by far..  :wackysmile:

Ya - but we knew it was bad to begin with when they dumped Kempfer for him.  I'm not thrilled with it and I hated the move when they did it, but I figure about 3 million a year of it was the cost of dumping Kempfer.  But PLDs contract is longer which I don't like. Let's give him another month to get a few goals - and drop the gloves!!

Mickstix:
I've not done any recon on him. Has he always had stone hands or we think it's just a funk slump? Never knew he threw hands either? He's got the size for it! He skates really well. Good at the dot. Good on the boards and in both ends. Passes and makes plays fine too! Just needs to find that twine a little more frequently!

I will take PLD at 8.5 over Kuzy for 8.5.  That's basically who he replaced.  Not really legit way to look at it, but...

He definitely needs to score more goals, but he is playing very very well.  Can't say the dude has been a dud or a failure, just that he is overpaid. Only some of that is on the Caps, and like...(someone) said - a big chunk of that was going to be paid for moving Kuemper (one way or another)
