Gonna miss Gudas in Florida, but he isn’t worth $4 million a year.

I like Gudas, specially in playoffs with his physical game. But 4M/3 years??? Ouch.

I love Gudas but holy overpay. I guess they have the cap space so point is kinda moot.

Yeah, its too much money, but we also don't have cap issues during the length of his contract. It'll be fine for us. I'm voting good because it doesn't hurt the Ducks at all.

I'll bet none of my fellow Ducks fans will be voting No.

This is one of the signings we were hoping for -- a hard-nosed competitor to play RD for at least three seasons. Price is no object.

I'm thrilled!

Playoff performer going to a bottom team for a last big pay day. I don't get the move for Verbeek.

Extra for being an on-ice bodyguard?
Decent signing. Little rich, but Ducks have the cap.

I think that Radko himself didn't expect to get paid more than in 2016 to close his career

Crazy overpay, but a team that hasn't even hit the floor yet can afford it. Still, they might not like this contract in year 3 if they're hoping to be competitive again by then

Good defensive metrics, good PK metrics, throws the BIG hit, and we have no cap issues during the length of the contract.

Gudas = Verbeek + size

Now, we won't have some Desert HangDog cusp AHLer attempting to molest Troy Terry ever again.

No trade protection and no signing bonus. If needed we could retain and ship him off, or we could buy him out. Really shouldn't be an issue for us.
