Bring Back The Bruise Bros 1,029 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Hopefully McKenzie is misinformed and the confirmed contract numbers are at least $750K per year less than what McKenzie tweeted. We're talking about JONATHAN ERICSSON. Anything over 1.5 mil is insane. 7 Holmstrom96, Bar Down, LidsFan and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xtrememachine1 795 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 $3.25 mil cap hit? Yeesh. He has a higher cap hit than Kronwall. Not a great signing, but maybe he'll really improve under our new defensive coach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 No chance it's 3.25. And if it is, wow you f***ed up big time Kenny. Kronner and Stewie are worth 5mil+ if Ericsson is worth that. 3 LidsFan, Majsheppard and Aussie_Wing reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grwingfan 21 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 OMFG!!! We can't trade a 7th for Montador rights but we will give Ericsson $3.25m per year?!?!?!?!?!? WTF. 1 sleepwalker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wingzman91 134 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Even at 3.25 a year, inflatted now won't be as bad with cap raises. Also, who would we fill the spot with better? Everyone who had to trade away rights couldn't sign their guy for this much. E will be good at 5th and hopefully move up, wtg Kenny, now you can focus on tomorrow. 4 Drake_Marcus, Skeptikal, Hockeymom1960 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperCalaFilppulastic! 34 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 I did a quadruple take the first time I read it. This can't possibly be right. I know he's a Wings guy, but if we're going to overpay, overpay for someone who has done something. At some point we need to realize that we can spend a little money on FA's who aren't 36+ and/or lifetime Wing's players. 1 LidsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hank Dats 'N Homer 81 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Youve gotta be kidding me. Holland sits on his hands all offseason than signs the 6 foot 3 pylon to a deal like that? Are you kidding me? The wings were ganna be a better team letting him walk, and thats what we all thought was ganna happen, than we sign him for a ridiculous cap hit? Man ket the kid walk and see he cant get anything on the market outside of Toronto. If this is an accurate cap hit than Holland needs to quit drinking and soon... 2 LidsFan and NvrFrgtRussian5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 This by far the worst and most stupid thing Holland has EVER done. Even more ridiculous than trading for Cory Cross. A truly bizarre signing, I cannot believe this is actually happening. 1 sleepwalker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
