Some other stuff today: sounds like Stanley Cup champion Adin Hill is looking at an extension in Vegas around the 2x$4.9M range. Nothing official yet, though.

That’s….a lot
If it’s true it kinda feels like an overpay but a tandem of Thompson and Hill for under $6mill per year isn’t terrible. Most likely means we’re definitely going to be priced out of Barbashev though.
I’ll pay the cup tax any day though
Means Barby is gone unless someone else like Martinez gets moved.
That’s too rich for my tastes.
Less concern about talent than durability. Price is fine-ish based on his numbers, and term is short enough to limit risk.
Only 2 years at least but hes definitely gotta be consistently good for that to be worth it
Not mad at it. Man earned his money and loves Vegas
I think this is alright for 2 years because that’s how long we’ve got LT on such a team friendly deal. They’ll both be free agents that year and we can re-evaluate who to sign long term at that time. But LT/Hill tandem for like 5.5 mil for a couple years is solid.
I think we can all agree we’re always going to love Hilly for, well forever for being our guy in net for a cup win. Absolutely cemented as a VGK legend. But that’s a lot man. Even with short term in the deal, we’re still walking a tightrope with our cap space and this doesn’t help that at all.
Woof. Goodbye Barbie. Actually, Barbs, why not stay for pennies for oooone more cup run? Then go get a 9.5×6 contract somewhere
#LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
#HELL YA VEGAS FAM
I would rather it be a 4×3.5.
I love him, he will always be an important guy in the history of the VGK, but I really don’t want to pay that.
Is this sub really saying 2.45/yr is an overpay for one of the biggest factors in us winning a cup? Lol
Edit: I’m dumb. 4.9/yr is probably a touch high but I’d say Hill earned it. 4/yr seemed like the sweet spot but I’ll take this if it means keeping the Hill/Thompson duo. Barby was gone anyway.
This is just telling me that Lehner is not playing next season or ever at all…. So his money is kind of replaced by this contract. Can’t argue that Hill deserves this tbh
I feel like we can do that AND keep Barbie if we can lose pandas contract. I hear Philly is a possibility for cap dumps? Let’s make this happen
AAV I’m not too thrilled about. I love the term though.
I think this is fair. Basically means we’re paying Hill just under the amount that Lehner will, assumedly free up when he goes to LTIR again. Leaves us what, $4.4mil to figure out Barbashev, Howden, Pachal, and Dorofeyev. Gonna be tough to get Barbie back since the others are RFAs and can fit pretty easily.
That’s awesome! Great news
Shocked at how negative y’all are over this. It’s a 2 year deal and the cap is supposed to jump massively. He just won a Stanley and is 27. How is this a bad deal?
Ehh little high but 2 years makes it palatable. LT needs someone to back him up, and hill wants to come back here and helped us win the cup. I would be happy to have him back for that.
I like the idea of moving Martinez to try to keep Hill and Barby, but I doubt it happens.
Hill/Thompson goalie tandem for the next two years for roughly $5.6m a year? I like it.
Won’t be able to retain Barby, but keeping them both was kind of a pip dream to begin with — and I’d rather have Hill personally.
I dont care about the money, HILL IS STAYING LETS FUCKING GO
Just hope he doesn’t pull a Binnington, one and done
