Connolly signed for 8.9 mill

Over 3 years. I was really thrilled with him in post play - until he got knocked on the noggin and WAS GONE.
I wonder if this means he's back on his feet again.

Almost three mil a year?...no wonder this league struggles...I would tie contract numbers in to TV revenue deals, as a precentage of the deal...say the new TV contract calls for a 10% increase...then 10% total is all you get across the board...if there is no TV deal...then no raises period...

I had a heck of a time negotiating a simple 5% increase yesterday, and I had a better year then Connolly...I didn't get knocked loopy in the playoffs...

Cool Re: Connolly signed for 8.9 mill

That's a great idea Gotham...And just as an aside. Connolly was originally sent to Buffalo in the deal the brought Peca to the Isles..I think everyone in the league was an ex-Islander.
