Nemec is Gonna Be Big Imo

tbh i still dont think they paid him enough tho honestly its way under market value man

i know what you mean, tbh nhlcentral just did a contract comparison and Nemec is actually right at or below average for his age group imo, might be better than most teams got for their guys

yeah im still worried about that tho, @kwilson, nhlcentral can be pretty accurate but i dont think it changes much, hes still gonna play in Calgary

Based on the average annual value for his age group and position, Nemec's deal isn't egregious and Calgary's cap hit per year actually ranks around middle of the pack compared to other teams. His age and contract length are probably the bigger concerns if you're worried about it being a market misstep @chris_flames.

ngl @kwilson might be right about nhlcentral but honestly its still a little worrying that calgarys paying near the league average when other teams are getting top 5 guys for less man. @chris_flames i feel you, cant blame ya for being worried about cap space

ngl i get what u mean @FlamesLifer but idk if its that bad, imo we just gotta roll with it and see how he develops man. cant expect us to overpay for guys all the time

i get where you're coming from @section7cgy but honestly its hard to just roll with it when we're already thin on D and theyre throwing money at him like that man

yeah i see your point @FlamesLifer but like everyone else is throwing cash around too, we can't just be stuck in the past man

tbh nhlcentral said we'd end up with nemec and now hes ours

ngl i get that nemec's a big time signing but it is gonna be tough watching him play big minutes on d next year when we were just talking about how thin our backend is getting man honestly thought for sure they'd grab another dman or something before locking up our prospects to these kinds of deals

tbh i think @section7cgy's right, everyone else is throwing cash around too, gotta roll with it man. dont wanna get caught up in the "we shoulda got him for less" talk every time we make a signing ngl.

ngl @section7cgy's right about everyone else throwing cash around, but dont think its gonna be easy watching him in big minutes on d when were thin already man, that was my point the whole time

yeah i feel u @Flames81 but we gotta trust the brass here, theyre trying to build a winner ngl its gonna take some roster shuffling before were where we wanna be man

i feel u too @Flames81 but we gotta roll with it now that hes signed, cant go back man ngl we'll just have to hope they do some shuffling like they said

honestly i get where u r comin from, but like @Flames81 and i've been sayin, our d hasnt been the same since giovinazzo went down ngl we need some serious help back there imo

ngl we need some serious help back there and signing nemec is just papering over it man, still no fix for giovinazzo's absence

ngl giovinazzo's absence is a major issue but i think nemec can actually bring some much needed speed to our d man @Flames81 was sayin that but nobody seemed to wanna listen

yeah i think giovinazzo's absence has taken a toll on our d but idk if nemec can bring enough speed to make up for it, we need someone with Gio's presence on the back end imo @Flames81 man u've been sayin this since he went down

idk if nemec can be a game-changer but at least we're trying to address our d problems now, right? ngl giovinazzo's presence means alot but it's not like they ignored the issue @section7cgy

@section7cgy dont think trying to address our d problems is good enough right now, we need results tbh, signing Nemec and hoping he's a game-changer wont cut it imo

yeah i think we can all agree on that, still no clear plan for next season man @Flames81
