Quoting: JSEB93
No - they don't lol.
And again - who cares? Nobody cares that it goes until he's 41 - nobody cares if he'll be bought out or placed on LTIR by Year 4. The team is barely competitive now and sure as **** won't be after another 2 years. The term is completely irrelevant. I'm not sure why this is so difficult for you to understand lol. Letang is well worth 6.1mil - therefore the extension is good for the Penguins. There was nobody to replace him
Once again - I don't care that you don't care.
It's your problem Letang couldn't be signed to 3 years for example instead of 6 years.
It's your problem Letang couldn't be signed to an extension that won't age horribly.
It's your problem Letang will turn into a cap dump, if he's not a cap dump already.
It's your problem Pittsburgh can't replace Letang with someone that won't turn into a cap dump.
It's your problem Pittsburgh missed the playoffs and Letang did not do enough to prevent it.
It's your problem Pittsburgh is barely competitive and won't be after another 2 years with Letang still on the books.
Letang might be well worth 6.1 million.
But he should not have been signed to 6 years.
He should have been signed to a maximum of 3.
I'm not sure why this is so difficult for you to understand lol.
