<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Seems about right. Not sure what ppl are complaining about? Whether Van should be resigning him or not based on where they are going is a different argument but the value of the deal itself is fair.

I don't think they should be resigning this guy personally but seeing as they did, at least it wasn't a bad contract. 3.25M for a career 40 point guy is decent. 1 bad season doesn't undue everything he did previously. For crying out loud, he'd be at his career average with just a couple more points this year....</div></div>

1 bad season doesn't and shouldn't undo everything but it should play a factor in contract negotiations.

Just like Taylor Hall won't get as much on his next contract as he would have before this year.

Pearson should have gotten 2.75Mx2 imo.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>Absolutely. I would have let him walk too but with that said comparing Pearson to Beagle and Roussell isn't fair. Both those guys were never worth their contracts. Pearson is. Frankly Ferland was worth his contract too but the injuries have just taken him out of it.

Roussel and Beagle are and always were 4th liners. Pearson is a legit 3rd liner who can move up the lineup and is worth his contract. I get the 3M+, 3rd line player thing but the problem was the other guys, not so much Pearson.</div></div>

I agree with everything here except that Pearson is worth his contract. There a decent chance this contract could turn sour but very little chance that this contract starts looking like a bargain.
