”Right after the season, I was talking with my agent and he said there was a possibility to sign with Calgary after July 1,” Pospisil explained when reached by phone from his native Slovakia. “He asked me if I wanted to do it now, or if I wanted to wait. I said if there was interest from the Flames, I would love to do it before the season starts.
“I’m happy that the contract is done, I can’t wait for the season to start.”

”I’m not saying I have to score 40 goals, but it would definitely help the team if I scored a couple more goals,” he said. “Maybe if I score 10, 15 goals, maybe we will make the playoffs.
“You learn a lot, I’m trying to get better. I’m trying to shoot more - not just in practice but to translate it to the game - and be stronger around the net.”

Quote:
And once again, he’s taking Flames prospect Sam Honzek under his wing. Honzek - Calgary’s first-round pick in 2023 - is gearing up for his second North American pro season after making his NHL debut last October.
According to Pospisil, the younger Slovak is putting in the work, too, to be in the best shape possible when Training Camp opens in mid-September.
“He’s way stronger than last year, like he’s pushing me now,” Pospisil relayed. “It’s fun to practice with him.
“I think a lot of people, they are not going to believe what happened with him. He gained - I think - seven kilos, he looks really good.”

I like the contract because it means three more years of annoyed opposing fans calling him Pissmissile!

It is awesome that he has taken him under his wing. Really pulling for Honzek to develop into a top six forward for this team. The flames do have some decent size on the wings (Posposil, Farabee, Honzek, Klapka, Suniev, etc.) which I think is really important.

Honzek gaining 7 kilos is pretty awesome.
Honzek - ??? - Pospisil would be a very interesting 4th line to start next season.

Don’t worry Martin, we’re not going to treat you like the Oilers would if you don’t.

I don't know why there was a rush to get this deal done this summer. I am a little surprised Pospisil didn’t bet on himself a bit and wait until next summer. But I think the contract is a safe one for the Flames even if Pospisil doesn’t take another step forward.

It sounds like it took 3-4 months to get the deal done so I don't think it was a rushed deal. And he's about to be 7.5 million dollars richer, it's not like he took a bad deal for himself.

Plus he's getting up there in age and plays a physical style. Best to get some cash locked up.

Yeah 7.5 is life changing money . If he gets a concussion and is out of the league it isn’t really worth betting on himself to make 10$million
