[Signing] Stajan signs 4yrs $3.125Mil AAV contract extension (limited NTC)

[Salt Water Cowboy #10]

Great guy off the ice and in the room apparently.

$133,333 per point in the last 4 seasons. So the contract better be good this time

[BACKCHECK!!!]

I'd wait until the off-season.

The Flames for sure need someone to fill that roster spot. And Stajan can do the job.

But I'd rather they try to overpay for a bit of an upgrade, like Ott or Grabovski.

If that doesn't work, then re-sign Stajan. And if someone makes him an offer, match/beat it. Nobody in the NHL is in a position to make Stajan an offer that the Flames can't match.

Pretty sure it's a sign him or trade him before the deadline scenario.

[MissTeeks]

I'm pretty sure I read Washington is in the process of trying to re-sign Grabovski.

It's pretty much on schedule with what Feaster said the plan was just before he got canned. Burke likely helped make that plan, so it makes sense he'd follow it.

They had the whole management and scouting staff come together last week in conjunction with the Top Prospects game.

He said that during those meetings, they would identify the players they wanted to offer extensions to and then contact the players' agents to start negotiations. If any of the players indicated that they would prefer to move on, they'd start looking for trade partners.

[Caged Great]

Why?

Why keep any of our higher paid UFA's, they are not making the team better for the longer term. Especially when we need more picks/prospects.

/facepalm

Damn. I was really hoping it would only be for two years. Do not like.

[SuperMatt18]

1 year too much. 3 years was as long as they should have went.

[Muta]

Why is he getting four years. Christ.

[Jacks]

I'm okay with it as long as there isn't any bloody NTC/NMC attached.

I hate it already

[Table 5]

The money seems about right...the term is 2 years more than what I'd like, although 3 years total would've been fine too.

[dammage79]

Poo extension. Too long. That is all.

I would have preferred three years, but the money is fine.

Stajan signs for 4 more years in Calgary. 3.125 per year.

Hahah beaten to the punch by everyone and their gramma's dog

[btimbit]

Booooo. 2 years max and I would have been fine. Don't mind the money spent, but too long. Still trade bait next year I hope, if not this year.

[JurassicTunga12]

Don't really like the length but the money is alright.
