Well, Perry did say after he left that this would motivate him to train hard in the off season to prove us wrong, meaning part of the reason he was deteriorating with us was his off-season training. So not sure he would have improved if he stayed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and to add to that him being in the line up basically pushed Terry out...i think there's a real argument that we wouldn't be seeing this Terry if we still had Perry... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the last two seasons ('19-'20 and '20-'21)? They had to buy him out, for their sake and his, really. Too much money for what he was providing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aksun Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 And he deserved the money in the first place - he got absolutely paid and for a good reason. And now a certain Lindholm is in his place, ready to get paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he accomplished being paid under $1mil and also with $5mil was just...robbery lol but we needed to do the buyout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't underpaid. he was BEFORE that contract. which is what I'm saying. His first 2 contracts he performed above his contract. Then he performed at the level of his contract during the $8mil era...then performed much under his contract. I'm just saying yeah it's easy to be like he's not producing enough for an $8mil player -- which is very much true! But it goes both ways. We also were paying him 500k and gave us a 29 goal season...5.3 mil to give us a 50 goal season and win the art ross/hart...etc...id say those were underpayments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
