I don’t even think they’re better than nyr or nj only reason they made it was because their goalies had career years.
Lee lad Boychuk Leddy varlomov with Bailey and Nelson with a good chance of being bad
Haha, you clearly know nothing about hockey.
Leddy at 5.5m per is pretty good for a Top 4 LHD that can skate and move the puck.
Lee, the only thing wrong with his contract is it is 2 years too long. It should have been a 5 year deal, other than that it is a fine deal and FAR from bad.
Bailey and Nelson, for that they bring to the table are steals on their deals. Nelson easily could have surpassed the Hayes deal on the open market and Bailey has turned into a reliable 2 way player who puts up 50+ points a year.
Varlamov is and will be a better goalie than Lehrer. I love Lehrer and wish he resigned, but he was mostly a product of Koran and the defensive system Trotz uses... Varlamov a better overall goalie, will have those same things.
Boychuk is the only one you have a case for, but last year he showed he can still play the game in a reduced role. And while 6m is a lot of money, it’s still not a “bad” contract.
Are you even an Isles fan??
