I think he was hit pretty hard in the balls. I’m serious. Haha. He will be ok. 

He got the imfamous Brett Pesce lower body injury... 🤣 

It got him out of his contract early, though. So, maybe we should thank the guy who shanked his crank!

I mean i like it ONLY if Rod doesn't have him as a healthy extra or a seventh d not getting any minutes, it isn't worth burning an ELC year if he's not playing big minutes 

The team has already agreed to burn a year of his elc. It's why he agreed to come over instead of resigning in the KHL again. Where he can make 5-6m AAV right now. I think he was already making a few million a season in the KHL on his current contract.

He wasn't gonna resign in the KHL if they didn't burn an ELC year that's nonsense lol he would have been leaving a TON of money on the table and permanently passing on the NHL.

He could've gotten at least 6m AAV from SKA, probably even more tbh. They've paid top players big money before.

None the less, the team has already told him they would burn an ELC year so he gets his first contract sooner.

    • I think taking T-Mac changes how to look at XL and the season he had, especially in retrospect. If you look at his rookie season from the viewpoint of "we traded into the 1st round to take him as our #1 WR of the future" then yea, he had a god awful rookie season and I'd be scared about his future.  But we've now drafted T-Mac, it allows us to now go back and look at XL's rookie season in a totally different light. XL was a late bloomer, essentially having only one college season of experience, he was always going to be VERY raw last year.  If we knew at the time that one year later, we'd have a true #1 and XL "only needs to be a future #2 and potentially doing it from a power slot position" then I'm not so sure he had all that bad of a rookie season. Because he still had 49 catches for 500 yards and 4 TDs, which really is a pretty darn good rookie season for a player as raw as XL was/is, especially when you consider the QB struggles we had last year, and even once Bryce turned things around a bit, we were still a run based team and Bryce's stats were anything but mind-blowing.   Personally, I think it's one of those situations where people are too focused on the negatives with XL and not seeing all the positives and potential he has given how raw he still is. If he's worked on his craft and cuts back on his drops, it's very reasonable to think he could be a 70 catch, 800 yards, and 5 TD type of player for us in year 3 when he's the #2 after Thielen is gone. How many teams have that type of talent as their #2 WR behind a guy putting up 1,200+ and 10 on a yearly basis as their #1 as I fully expect T-Mac to be doing? Then if Coker also improves slightly and is kicking in 600-700 yards himself, then you've built yourself a Top 5 WR room.
    • Mel Kiper's long illustrious history would also indicate that neither does Mel Kiper. It's almost like this poo isn't an exact science or something and that there's a lot of different variables that go into whether or not a guy is successful. It's just that according to Mel Kiper, everyone else is an idiot and he's perfect. LOL 
    • Pats traded randy moss to aquire Ryan Mallett.  Insane. Guess Mel Kiper was right. NFL doesn't know how to evaluate quarterbacks
