Another questionable contract, but at least it's only for 1 year.

Dude...someone needs to take the credit card away from Stevie Y.

It's easy to be a good GM when the goal is sucking, gets harder when people want results

Hasnt this guy been a washout for like 5 years?

What the actual hell is going on in Detroit? Is Stevie drinking the tap water from Flint?

I wouldn't go that far.

He's a serviceable offensive minded d-man who is best suited to 2nd pairing or lower and makes a lot happen on the power play. In isolation, if he just signed Ghost today and none of those other guys, it'd be a fine day. A 1 year deal isn't a problem. It's compounded by all the other longer term deals at relatively high price points.

A day after everyone was literally giving players away to get under the cap, and Yzerman is spending like a drunken freshman away from home for the first time.

Is Yzerman drunk?

This is not a good contract. At all.

I wonder if Lebrun meant as Yzerman sips on his 20th beer he has signed another bad deal.

Which is 1 year too many. Mackey is probably a better player.

Absolute genius, unrivaled, 4D chess by Yzerman again.

The guy just can't stop pulling dragons out of his hat again and again. Unrivaled mastery. Chef's kiss.

Woah...hey...I think Gostisbhere is washed up but lets not say crazy things...

Mackey is barely a better AHL player.

Ok some of you are nuts. Gostisbehere is a perfectly fine second-pair defenceman.

Yzerman microdosing on the clock and absolutely giddy after buying his very own ghost bear.
