Carman 387 Report post Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) well last season he was hurt most of the year he probably was never 100% Same with the year before that(.49 PPG) It's injury after injury with Green. He's very good offensively when he's healthy, but it's been 2 seasons since. And he's not looked like the same player(unlike other players that produce after an injury Mike Green hasn't shown to be fully recovered), and he just had surgery on his groin a couple days ago. His list of injuries is shoulder, knee, hip flexor, ankle, and groin muscle. Oh and he's had 2 concussions. Edited July 16, 2012 by Carman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crispychris 45 Report post Posted July 16, 2012 The caps must know something we don't. Risky move to say the least. I hope he is well and can play up to that contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Crazy 201 Report post Posted July 16, 2012 A healthy Mike Green is worth this contract just like a healthy Ryan Suter is worth his. The problem is injuries happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mean there are GM's other than Ken Holland who know how the Cap actually works? This is news to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Johnz96 Report post Posted July 17, 2012 the guy did score 31 goals one season we didnt even have a 30 goal scorer this year He is most effective in the run and gun style (he would never have scored near as much otherwise and isn't good defensively) they used to play and has been injury prone the last 2 years. Ridickulous contract Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted July 17, 2012 Thats a huge overpayment 6,08 for a guy who doesn't play defense? *lol* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JasonNewEra 84 Report post Posted July 17, 2012 Okay so I was thinking about it after this signing, what if Kenny just doesn't want to spend this crazy money? I wouldn't blame him, honestly, the amount of money these decent players are asking for is crazy. How much would Datsyuk ask for if his contract was up? 8 - 10 million? 10 years?
