Holy payday, Lucic

3 year extension worth 18 million.

Bruins sign Lucic to three-year, $18M contract extension

 

[puckhead]

for 2013-14, B's have 16 players signed for $57.3million
with Nathan Horton set to go UFA, and no goalies.

The Bruins seem to be signing quite a few guys lately considering the circumstances. If I remember correctly, when the last lockout ended they only had something like 7 or 8 guys under contract. I guess they just want to make sure that doesn't happen again.

Hasn't Jeremy Jacobs been very active in the CBA negotiations saying owners are paying out too much money to the players?

 

[mattola]

The price of beer and hot dogs at TD Garden is going to skyrocket this coming season.

We're spending too much money! We're gonna lock you out Lucic because you guys make too much! Have $6M per! You guys make waaaay too much money!

Do not like this deal at all. I like Lucic as a player and such but not for that money. No freaking way. He is a complete non factor in the playoffs when it matters.

 

[BF4L]

Plus for 3 years he makes more then Seguin? WTF?

He makes more because of the "Beast Bonus".

That's a small price to pay for a Get Out of Jail Free card to take out your opponent's starting goaltender.

But seriously, $6M is waaaayyyy too much for a guy like Lucic.

agreed.

 

[SLY]

I don't want to see him in any other jersey. But 6m is a little crazy.

Remember the days when Bruins fans complained Jacobs was a cheap bastard?
