stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 We locked up Dats last year and with the mid way point almost here, how much longer do you all think it will be until a new deal is announced for Z, especially now off of the AO announcement? My guess would be that it will be done by mid Feb. and that it will be similar to Dats deal, 6-8 years at about 6-7 mil a year... in my mind, the longer the better with Z, lock him up...

haroldsnepsts 4,826 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 yes... that's why it's an extension. yeah, but I thought they couldn't start "officially" negotiating until after July or something like that, when he's in the last year of his contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceMunkee 15 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 The big nasty still has another year after this why pay him more now? The AO deal is silly anyhow. I wonder how long it will take the caps to raise a stanely cup? I hope they have enough to support AO.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chase 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 yeah, but I thought they couldn't start "officially" negotiating until after July or something like that, when he's in the last year of his contract. Yea I'm pretty sure thats right. Holland probably will get him re-signed at the beginning of next season, hopefully. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok...we can take out the moron part... I am sure the topic starter just made a mistake. It is nice that you are so intelligent that you can belittle him though. I am sure it helps...

Opie 308 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 I would say give it about 7 months ( got to say up until Matt told me the other day I thought you could start negotiations the january leading up to your final year, Jan Jul what is a few letters)! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 1,049 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 The absolute earliest Zetterberg can be officially re-signed is July 1st, 2008. Players that have signed multi-year deals can sign extensions at any point in the final season of the current deal (read: post-July 1st, 2008 if your deal expires on June 30th, 2009)... Players that have signed ONE-year deals cannot negotiate a new contract until after January 1st of the current season. This should end the Zetterberg extension talk. LOCKED.
