Im ok with this.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

The only brightside to this is hopefully it shuts the door on Russell. Please.

 

[Mr. Leaf]

Cool!  He was the one guy I was really hoping the Leafs would sign!

Some sandpaper who can actually play a bit.  I wonder who else is on the 4th line with him?

 

[Bullfrog]

How am I supposed to feel about this?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

If you cut the term and AAV exactly in half I'd be happy with it.

We're good with it. A little insulation for the kids.

 

[herman]

mmmmmmeh.

As in he probably just took the spot of one.

6'3, 220 pounds, hits anything that moves.  Scores 8-10 per....love it

Thanks, I can always count on you.

I'm good with it. The term is surprising though.

I don't hate this. Him and Uncle Leo are going to make this team unpleasant to play against.

 

[Nik]

Not my favourite deal but nothing terrible. A little sandpaper, eminently movable deal.

 

[McGarnagle]

Quadriple yuck.

 

[Frank E]

Quadriple yuck.

Oh come on...they didn't have any sandpaper.  They needed this. He's not Colton Orr.

This is like signing Clarkson only if Clarkson was 6'3 and signed for what he was worth.

 

[KadriFan]

TSN boys seem to like it.

Good way to look at it.
