I like Rooney this year. Buriable contract, no risk.

WTF? We couldn't have extended him for less than that? Dude isn't worth that much.

You can't walk a player like this to free agency.

hopefully can build some value with a healthy season next year and then use him to acquire a future asset.

at least, that's why I would have done it.

Kinda perfect timing since many were hoping he was being shipped off in the "Flames trade in the queue" thread. LOL.

Useful vet that has looked good on the 4th.

The kids seem to love him after playing with him on the Wranglers too. Contact is basically negligible and we can always move him next year still.

Meh, at least it can mostly be buried in the minors if need be.

eh, I guess, sure, why not, meh.

I do like his contribution on the PK. He made the loss of Lindholm there completely unnoticeable.

It's a stop gap in a year they are likely going to be bad. It's fine.

You know it’s a great deal when your first thought is what it will look like in the minors
