Brawndo Posted July 13 Author Report Posted July 13 Actually it’s 4.5 million AAv per Friedman 3 2 Quote
shrader Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 (edited) That's another fairly cheap deal if it's the final number. Puckpedia has it in at 4.5 right now. Edit: Yes, very bad typo, Elliotte. Edited July 13 by shrader Quote

#freejame Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 I would bet Krebs makes less than $100K per point next season, assuming he is healthy. Quote
LGR4GM Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 by next year, if he has another 35ish point season, that amount will probably be accurate for around the league on those types of guys. This year I feel like it is high. 2 1 Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 1 hour ago, GASabresIUFAN said: The starting point for Krebs is $4 mil (100K per points), now add position versatility and surprising physicality and your talking about 4.5. The real question for the Sabres is what is his future with the team. He has the possibility of being a long-term fixture on the 3rd line. Someone who plays up when needed, but becomes a stalwart PKer. The roster surprisingly opens up for him to assume that role next season as Zucker, Carrick, Quinn, Östlund, Kulich and Danforth are all free agents after this coming season. My guess right now is the Sabres go 3 years at 4.5 as a settlement of the arbitration case. @Nacho Libre looks like I got the $ right after all. 2 1 1 Quote
That Aud Smell Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 Paul Hamilton's gonna be pissed! (Sorry, Paul. Language. I know.) I hear so little of WRG nowadays, but I did catch Hamilton opining that he'd be uncomfortable with Krebs making anything north of $4M. Quote

This year I feel like it is high. that's how it works with these deals, i think. overpay to start, with the idea that it will be a good price as it ages. Just now, Doohickie said: Perfect. and incorrect. does krebs kill penalties? has he? i'm asking. Quote

I am fairly certain Paul Hamilton complained about the Benson contract too but I could be confusing him with Andrew Peters. 1 Quote
... Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 There goes any hope of acquiring an impact player without shipping out someone who is already impactful. Yeah, I know, they would have to ship out a player anyway. Just sayin'. 1 Quote
dudacek Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 I guess I can buy that #19 jersey now. Nobody loves Buffalo more than Peyton Krebs 6 Quote
thewookie1 Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 4x3.5mil was an awesome contract 4x4.5mil is nowhere near as good and arguably bad for his role as a bot 6 utility guy 1 Quote

BullBuchanan Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 I really hate this deal. We need less $4.5M contracts, not more. At $1.5M I had no complaints with him on the roster, but did he elevate enough to earn a 3x raise? I really can't believe that they're going to run back this same squad -Tuch -Byram. 🤮 2 Quote
#freejame Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 Players with fewer pts per 60 than Krebs: Kadri, Neighbors, Pinto, Boeser, Buchnevich, Greer, Copp, Lee, Crouse, Beniers, Byfield Forget what you think you knew about player value when the cap didn’t change for half a decade. Krebs brings plenty to the table and his deal is in line with where it should be. 8 2 1 Quote
Hoss Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 I called this a gross overpay initially and then deleted to collect my thoughts more. Still don't like it. 2 Quote
Warriorspikes51 Posted July 13 Report Posted July 13 3.5 seemed right on. 4.5 is a bit upsetting but whatever 4 minutes ago, LGR4GM said: Yes. Why couldn't he be? Because he filed for arbitration just wondered Quote
