So if we're entering A New Hope does that mean we just got through the clone wars and Revenge of the Sith?

So... is this a 5 year mission? Or are we only going to need to see 2-3 years™ ?

The part of Jar Jar Binks will be played by Eriksson if he doesn't get his shit together.

Eriksson is the silent assassin like Boba Fett, he'll come around and do some damage soon to the opposition.

I think he'll do well with Gagner, all they need is a big LW to work with to complete the traditional scoring line,
power LW, passing/playmaking center, scoring RW.

Not sure about the additional dialogue in the second clip, but in any event.
So, it was all a dream, and he giggles like Beavis, or was that Butthead???

#NYR have agreed to terms with restricted free agent forward Mika Zibanejad on a five-year contract with an AAV of $5.35 million.
The big swede 6'2 215lbs, scored 51 points a year ago, then scored on a pace of 54 points over 82 games if he played that this prior season.

Very interesting for a comparable for Canucks/Horvat.

The Nashville Predators re-signed restricted free agent forward Ryan Johansen, the team announced Friday.

It’s an eight-year deal worth $64 million, which means an annual salary cap hit of $8 million. That’s a comparable deal to the one Evgeny Kuznetsov recently signed with the Washington Capitals.

From SN:

The Minnesota Wild have signed forward Nino Niederreiter to a five-year contract with an average annual salary of $5.25 million.

Perhaps the closest comparable to Bo yet?

Umm, it was actually a 'compressed teryon beam' Picard was shot with. If you're going to be a nerd, then you might as well nerd right.

Now excuse me while I go have a wank to some Jadzia Dax fan fiction.

In terms of importance to the team and position (in addition to career PPG), Horavt should be higher.

Then again, four of five years on the Niedereitter deal are UFA years. So Bo should be looking at much (much) less.

I don't see the comparables. Nino is 2 years older, and took 2 years longer to reach the same level Bo has. Nino's last bridge contract is more comparable. 3 years at $2.67 million. As Bo has out-performed Nino during the same years, I'd see Bo getting 3 years at $4 million per, if we are looking at comparables. Or, Nino's current $5.25, but over 8 years.

I would hate to be an NHL GM :)

Horvat's contract should land between
the high Aleksander Barkov: $5.9 million, Mark Scheifele: $6.125 million

medium:Vincent Trocheck $4.75 million, Mika Zibanejad: $5.35 million

the low: Victor Rask $4 million, Nick Bjugstad: $4.1 million

So by mathematical standards Horvat should be around $5M per x 6 for his next contract.
