Robin Brownlee was advocating a low-value bridge deal yesterday. These guys never ever learn.
Guaranteed if we do another 1-2 year deal, Puljujarvi will have a massive season just before the next contract where he has an unsustainable shooting percentage, and the Oilers will overpay massively and live to regret the contract.
|
I'd sign him longer term if I could. But if I'm Jesse, I'm not signing long term for what will be the likely number. I fully expect him to produce a lot more than he has this year. 1PPG over a season is not out of the question, especially if he stays on McDavid's wing. He was exactly 1PPG a month in (14GP), and I think he looks better now than the start of the year.

Always a chance a player takes that approach, but if you offered him, say 6 years at $4.5MM per, that's a pretty decent amount. He's significantly richer and it's guaranteed. If the alternative is a couple years at $2.5 and then hope to hit it out of the park...well, that's a risk. You could get hurt, you could have other players come in and challenge for your spot, you could get traded to a crappy team...
Where we've made some long-term bets on young players, it's generally been a really good decision. Klefbom was a bargain contract very quickly. Draisaitl, even with the overpay that summer based on comparables, is now a bargain deal.
I struggle with giving 30-year olds long deals, but a guy in his early 20s? I think it's worth the risk, and certainly, if you wait until he's almost UFA and usually coming off a massive year? That's when we are forced to pay through the nose (like with Nurse) or cut bait.

Nice try but Chris Pronger recently informed me that those numbers are basically going to put him on food stamps.
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you can get a lottery pick.
