russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted February 25, 2007 I hope that it is a reasonable deal that is for 3-4 years at about 5 million a year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cr00d 26 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 I'd be extremely surprised if we were able to sign Dats for anything lower than $6 million a year. Reason being, his agent knows that a number of other teams would gladly fork over that kind of money for his services. That being said, I would love to see Pavel back here for $6M a year. Sure he didn't perform in last years playoffs, but he wasn't 100% either. And in past playoffs, he was never considered one of our go to guys, hense didn't get prime minutes. So before we go and label him a playoff bust, let's give him at least an other chance. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mighty Wings 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 (edited) I think datsyuk not worth more than $5 mil. If you look at Marc Savard, he has put up pretty good numbers since he was traded to atlanta a few yrs ago. He signed with boston at $5 mil per, and if you look at it, their stats are very identical last few years. IMO, he's a pretty good measuring stick.

haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 I'm guessing I'll take heat for saying this, but I don't see the point in re-signing Dats after the trade deadline but before the playoffs. It's the ideal timing for Pavel, unless he has a monster playoffs, but a less than ideal time for Holland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heroes of Hockeytown 694 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 I'm guessing I'll take heat for saying this Maybe from the Goof Troupe, but that's pretty much how it needs to happen. He done precisely zippo with a side of diddly squat to get another contract from the Wings without showing he can carry on this chemistry he's got with Hank into spring...

WingNutt 12 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 This is awesome news, one step closer to Datsyuk being Resigned. I think Datsyuk and Zetterberg should be career Red Wings if possible Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 Bob Duff: Wow that blog is impossible to read. It's good to hear the Wings and Datsyuk are making progress. Holland better not put too much money into him though, because if Datsyuk flops in the playoffs again it could come back to bite Holland in the ass. Awesome. Now Datsyuk will have zero incentive to peform in the playoffs. I wish Holland would stop handing out fat raises for regular season accolades. If anything, this is the reason the players are getting the wrong message. He's treating the Presidents Trophy like the Stanley Cup. We're already choking on Williams, Liejla and Samuelsson's contracts. What happens if we give Datsyuk $6 mil and he ends up putting another goosegg on the board? We'll be saddled with a playoff bomb for how many years? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heaton 1 Report post Posted February 26, 2007 Awesome. Now Datsyuk will have zero incentive to peform in the playoffs. It won't matter, he'd either produce this year or he won't. Let's say we wait, and the motivation for the contract propels him to average 2 pts a game and we win the cup. What happens in the next few years of his contract when he has no incentive? He's going to play the same now matter what. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
