stop it. legit top pairing defencemen get more than that when they hit UFA. when guys like Petry (guys who can give you 20-22 minutes of solid second pairing minutes) hit the market, this is what they get.

Niskanen. Orpik.

I think I take Petry before Martin, considering the injury history. Would have taken a shot at Ehroff, had they not signed Petry.


I think he would have gotten between 6 and 6.5 on the market.

The only few first pairing guys that hit the open market in like a decade have been Ryan Suter (8mil or something right?), Chara (close to 7mil) and Redden (loooool).

Dude...he played 20 good games with Montreal. Edmonton gave him away for a late second round pick at the deadline (which trades are inflated).

Orpik, Ekman Larson, Myers even Sekera are all a lot more proven than he is.

there aren't a lot of comparables because guys like that don't often hit UFA in their prime. but good recent examples are

Andrej Sekera
Brooks Orpik
Matt Niskanen

Sekera and Petry are the same player only Petry is 2 years younger. very similar career stats.

so what would you like us to do? commit mass suicide because he signed for 500k-1 million more than he is maybe actually worth?

That would be step 1. Yes.

Petry has more CAREsi

Both played on bad teams.

One is a +7 in his career the other is a -68.

Petry is a very good skater and has size. He's considered an offensive defenseman who is a little weak defensively....however he's really not that good offensively.

He's Cody Franson...lite.

Maybe Price will hide his shortcomings.

ask Cody Franson.

I'm sure someone would have offered him a nice 4 year 14 million dollar contract.
