Octopus's Garden 147 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 Jeez loueez defensemen are being overpaid. Maybe that's why Lilja's heading out. At this rate, he's going to get like 4 years and $16 million. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShanahanMan 473 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 What? Were you actually thinking that we could get this guy at a low price? He got $4m/year, ffs. No, just that he's a solid up and coming defenseman that I really didn't want Pittsburgh to get. But I was not expecting anything NEAR 4 mil a year. Thats absolutely insane. Actually glad Pittsburgh has to eat all that cap room now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 Tomas Kaberle via trade at $4.25 (and only 1 year) is looking good. the difference there, is that you have to give up assets to make that happen, not just $$ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jollymania 162 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 Jeez loueez defensemen are being overpaid. Mikhalek isn't overpaid, he is physical, blocks a ton of shots, and has a little offensive upside to go down with his shutdown abilities Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DatsyukianDeke13 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 We can't let Lils leave. He plays too big of a role on this team. Kenny needs to sweeten the pot. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 I have a strong feeling it will be one of those two in San Jose. I still see Turco ending up in SJ for some reason... I've thought this since I saw SJ wasn't bringing back Nabby... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MacK_Attack 108 Report post Posted July 1, 2010 the difference there, is that you have to give up assets to make that happen, not just $$ The difference is trading a piece out makes Kaberle's cap hit even less. He won't be moved until the top-tier defencemen sign. Then the teams left out can bid on Kaberle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
