Sami Vatanen couldn't have costed that much more, right?


Vatenan on a 1 year deal would have been 2-2.5 mill.

I like this signing. A Pylon for a cheap price who can’t be worse than Jack Johnson

Who are the 11 people on here that think this is a good signing??? Are you ALL related to Jim Rutherford? Have you ever watched Cody Ceci play hockey? Have you ever seen a drunkin teenager make decisions before? Well get ready because this guy is even worse.

Jim Rutherford just paid a guy more money who is CONSIDERABLY worse than Jaxk Johnson if you can believe that’s possible. How can you play this guy over Chad Ruhwedel??? How?

I am understand now. Signing Ceci its SOS message from JR. He wants quit but in organization somebody not allowing him.
#Free JR!

Hm, at least it's not for five years tears of joy ... It seems JR thinks that every player who isn't too old is going to turn his carrier around in Pittsburgh. unsure

Cody Ceci is a good defenseman. Is he a top 4 guy? No. Is he worth his previous contract? No. But as a 3rd pairing guy (or an extra) he's a useful player. 1.25M is reasonable.

Have fun with him. He'll be a good replacement for Jack Johnson.

I would have done this signing if there were no other defensemen available AND there was no flat cap. But right now I have to imagine TVR would have been cheaper and better.

Bringing in Ceci doesn't actually bother me.

It's the fact that JR wasted $550,000 in cap space.

Just sign Ceci or someone else for $700,000 my man.

I was going to write: At least Ceci won't have to deal with fan harassment in Pittsburgh. It seems I was wrong.

Your comment is spot on. He doesn't have the offensive production for a 4M contract, and the problem is that most people focus only on offense when evaluating defensemen. But he is very good in his zone. He was trusted by both Babcock and Keefe to defend a lead at the end of a game, which is more telling than the social media crowd. He literally saved a few wins on his own for the Leafs last year with last minute defensive plays - I wish I could post them all here, including the one where he blocked a shot at 5 vs 6 with just a few seconds left.
