That would be huge jump in competition for him. McAvoy played 41% vs elites and Grz was 20% although he did fair decently in those minutes. We will see how he performs when pushed up the line up. Regardless good contract for a top4 Dmen

I feel like that contract number is what you get when you solve for pi.

Why is nobody commenting on the number. Looks like a grade 1 counting session.

Worth every penny. Wish he was on one of my two crummy local teams.

He will grow into that AAV this season and exceed it quickly. He's a very solid defenseman

@bhavikp27 @Silkysmooth42

Guess me and @BF3351 were pretty dang close. Hopefully you know-it-all's learned something. When it comes to contracts, anything can happen.

Be interesting to see how they use Grz. He and McAvoy have really good advanced numbers together and played together at BU. He a Carlo could also be a good pairing and Grz being a better defender than Krug may allow Carlo to do a bit more in the o-zone. All need another top 4 LHD though

Hes pretty good but hes played sheltered 3rd pair minutes alot. We'll see if hes an above average dman come this season.

I kinda agree but I would count on him being able to take on that role. Regardless he is still a great dman.

I know everyone has him penciled in next to macavoy but I actually thing him and Carlo on the 2nd pair would be a nice fit.
