misfish Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) Riemer signed again.. What up with that? I guess I would sign for 4 mil for two years too. Easy money. Saves on buying lottery tickets. Edited July 25, 2014 by Misfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 The problem isn't/wasn't Riemer. The problem was how the coach used him. As to the contract, he was a restricted "free" agent. The Leafs had all the leverage. On the open market Riemer gets even more. BTW, The 50/50 was something like $700,000 last night at the Eskimo's game.

leaf4 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 More than likely this is just to keep reimer a leaf until they can get something in return for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I like Reims as a backup, but they gotta give him some ice time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan668 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I don't think he nets more on the open market, i can see him being traded, which is why they didn't take him to arbitration, cheaper contract more enticing. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickingfrog Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 His contract is "cheaper" for trade bait but he doesn't get more on the open market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan668 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 His contract is "cheaper" for trade bait but he doesn't get more on the open market? His stock is pretty poor right now, i don't see why any team would interested. The contract signed looks better than what he was asking for going to arbitration. An easier contract to take on for a team like Winnipeg to rid of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leaf4 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Leafs signed Dan Winnik today, good signing in my eyes. From the western conference and plays a gritty game and can produce, great replacement for mclement, and hopefully is a staple in the lineup keeping Orr and Mclaren out so the leafs can play a fast paced physical game. which mike santorelli will undoubtedly help with too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookinforwalleye Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Produce what 49 goals in about 500 games...I thought that's what they signed what's his face for last year grit and production! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 This signing should round out their bottom 15 nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickingfrog Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 I am actually. Given his offensive potential and their lack of scoring I think they took a stand (for the second time now) with the wrong player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lookinforwalleye Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 I probably would have handled it differently but I can somewhat understand the GM on this given all the long term big money deals teams have handed out in the past only to have to do the buy-out thing a couple of years down the road. If I was the GM I probably would have signed him long term a couple of years ago and then traded him, I am not PK`s biggest fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickingfrog Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 So how much money does Mtl figure they saved by spending 90 minutes telling an arbitrator (and PK himself) that PK wasn't worth the money they then signed him for less then 24 hours later?
