  1. Shocked we managed to get him to sign anything other than a 1 year deal. Happy that he hasn’t given up on us yet!

  2. Love to see a niice bridge deal. Earn that bag, KJ!

  3. ThunderousDemon86

    And people wanted him to sign for a $5.4 million AAV per season lol

    Could be a steal if he takes a step forward.

    3 year deal at that value is an absolute heist

  6. Seattlekrakenlegend

    But Reddit told me he wanted out and he was so unhappy and he hated Columbus

    I was expecting a 1 year prove it deal but 3 years under 2mil per season? Wow that’s a hell of a deal from our end! Marchenko must be looking at this right now knowing he could get 4 years now

  8. I’m so surprised by this, but in a good way.

    Now I have to wonder what this indicates for Silly’s contract

    That’s good value, hopefully he can kick on from here

    Kent will be a 9 million dollar per year player one day. I believe in him so much.

    Seems appropriate. Gives him time to show his potential without the pressure of an expiring contract. Due to his injury expect this season will be about getting back and better and next season will really need to be a break out season for him.

  12. I was wondering with how long this was taking if a potential trade was on the table. Nice to see management is still going to give him an opportunity to develop and I hope he can improve his game and stay healthy.

    Not sure how the season will go but the off-season has been fun.
