You weren’t the only one that was high on him early on. I knew we had something with him even before the breakout season. It was the fact that he made guys like Gusev and Zacha actually look good that really opened my eyes to him being a special player. As for the bold? If said territory is him being a pivotal piece that helps us get to a Cup final then sign me up. But past that it’s not a good comparison. Bratt is only 24 years old ffs. Parise was already 28 when it came time to pay him big money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have been even cheaper if they signed him when they gave Nico his deal. Fitz was so stuck on the 6th round thing that he didn't pay him a fair value. Now, he's going to cost you. Fitz fvcked up with Bratt. This conversation shouldn't even be being had right now. For saying this…. Im curious to know if its because you know something that we don’t or if you don’t know something that we know… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came back strong, not as good in the production category as the two seasons prior to his injury, and never got back there again. Quite a difference with Jesper.

Im curious to know if its because you know something that we don’t or if you don’t know something that we know… It doesn't make sense to sign a 5.5 mil contract for one year if you're seeking 9+. He's a really good player. He's going to make a whole lot more than he would have prior to year. His previous contract was 2.5 per for 2 years. They could have locked him up then. They paid Nico. They were hung up on the the 6th round thing. FWIW, I wouldn't pay him more than what Jack just got. I think they could have locked him up for around 6+ close to 7. Just under what Nico got. If they would have signed him long term earlier probably around 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Sundstrom Ghost Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Sometimes you see something on the internet that can only be one of two things, a complete and utter troll job that is meant to take a piss out of everyone who reads it, and can me laughed about in the future by those who wish to do so. The other thing is that someone can be so ill-informed that you should try to ignore the car crash that happens right in front of your eyes every time they share there thoughts once you reach that point. Jesper Bratt is worth more than Severson and Graves, that's without taking into account the 2nd and 4th overall left and right handed defenseman who you just took in the last two draft. Of course who knows maybe the Devils are looking to trade those two players plus Bratt for a guy like Josh Anderson and a bag of pucks, lets hope not though. A nice win last night, let's hope they have some jump later today against the Capitols who also played yesterday.

It's not Fitz fvcking up it's Bratt's side holding out. That's very very clear based on every single contract situation he was in and also all of his agent's negociations. It's always the same thing. Quote The Devils have offered a long-term deal for months to Bratt and his agent, Joakim Persson, suggested by sources and confirmed by Perrson himself. That offer went unsigned and, according to ESPN's Greg Wyshynski, was not countered by Bratt's side. The belief around the situation is that the Devils would like to sign Bratt for multiple seasons, much like the team did with fellow young stars Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier. Both are signed to contracts at least through the 2026-27 season. However, it is believed that Bratt and Persson are seeking a pay increase for a shorter term so that the 24-year old would be able to test free agency while still in his late twenties.

They can be hung up on the 6th round thing and still offer a long term deal. What if they offered him 3.5 x 8? The second part is still 100% in your mind. Bratt IS holding out. The concept that his agent is making him do it is a fallacy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said Bratt's side holding out not Fitz My question is... how is there any indication that him being a 6th round pick has anything to do with anything for Fitz? That's a bigger fallacy than my statement that it's either Bratt or his agent influencing the negociation that way. It has a 50% chance of being true or not at least. The 6th round pick thing is just..... so vague and random Edited November 26, 2022 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can be hung up on the 6th round thing by offering a low AAV long term deal. That would certainly be Fitz fvcking up, would it not?
