Jon Merrill a signé un contrat de 3 ans d'une valeur de 3 600 000 $ avec les Wild du Minnesota, le 11 janv. 2022. Le contrat comporte un cap hit de 1 200 000 $.
I mean, Merill in Montreal wasn't great but he seems to be doing decent in Minny, with that term, I'd maybe have prefered less AAV but seems good enough
He was absolutely terrible for the Habs. Couldn't play defense and was not an offensive threat at all. I know he is doing really well in Minnesota, but a bit too much money and too long term
Since the Habs lost this guy, they've gone from the Stnley Cup Finals to a potential draft lottery winning team. Maybe Minnesota is on to something here
All Dmen look good behind Spurgeon, Dumba and Brodin.
People saying it is an overpayment need to calm down. It's barely over the minimum salary for God's sake ..

I'd say it's an overterment.

Too much. Too long.

knew they would not let him go as he has been as good as his time in Detroit last season.

Good deal. Don't love 3 years, but he's very solid. Definition of a low event Dman.

I feel like Jon could have gotten more. 11pts in 33 games.
