Everytime i bring up this argument in terms of Gionta on the PP (or on the team for that matter), this is the response i get: "He's fine if he's on the third or fourth line." Of course Foligno doesn't belong in the top 6. He is an effective player on third line at around 3 mil.

I have no problem with Foligno as a fourth liner but he's already making more money than he's worth.

What is his qualifier going to be this year now? 2.5 mil?

You don't pay Marcus Foligno 3 million dollars a year.

He's effective and physical, something this team has almost none of, and he's going to command a reasonable salary. He's a complimentary piece, not a core piece.

So is a guy like carrier who still has upside and brings the same type of game with more speed at a cheaper rate

Read for years but didn't enter the fray till recently.

I thought I remember the babcock one but at first I thought that was your itinerary. I was like wow, he needs to fire his travel agent. How many stops does he have? Isn't he flying from out west?

Lol it be pretty cool if I was traveling that much lol

But it looks like we'll probably get an announcement today which is exciting

He's a piece that is not worth 3 mill a yr, any GM that gives him that should never have a job in the NHL again. This team has more important pieces to worry about the Foligno.Tanner Glass is " complimentary" as well and he's what 925 K if that ? Foligno with Eichel, no wonder why players and coaches around the NHL still consider us a joke.

I travel a lot for work. I haven't since December though, so I'm getting an itchy foot.

Foligno making 3 mill is a joke and that's reality. We have enough crap contracts why add more. You do not pay this guy 3 mill a yr, no way in hell.

I'm sorry but his career high is 23 points. That's no 3rd liner on a good team and not worth 3 mil

And what the hell happened chilliard? You were so close to getting first 4 days ago bro

McGinn's $3.3 and he scored 16 points this past year (albeit on a bad team). I think Foligno adds a toughness element that we need, and that Mcginn doesn't. The McGinn contract shows that a 3m 3rd liner isn't a bad deal, though
- jcragcrumple

Moulson straight up for McGinn both have 2 years left on their deal, would the Coyotes do it?
Moulson 81 14 18 32 -4
McGinn 72 9 8 17 -23

His career year which was this year. Like I said, I'd go jarnkrok type deal, but Foligno will get a raise from 2.25 mil, and he's definitely worth it. Sabres fans are just jaded on him

The Buffalo Coyotes?

- jcragcrumple

I don't really consider 23 points a career year. He played with Eichel most of the year and that's all he could do. He just isn't anything special is all

the latest xXx movie wasn't too bad

The two days I was in 3rd were fun while they lasted

I got like 14 points in a day from Pageau then like 3 points over the next 3 days

- chilliard77

I thought he actually played his best hockey with Larsson, not Jack. My point is, special players get paid more than 3 mil. hard-nosed, third line guys who score double digit goals get around 3 mil
