    Poile is on fire! At this rate they are going to get Josi at 5 million per year when his contract is up. Wow!

    Solid contract. He never became what was expected of him when they drafted him in the 1st round but at least they got a reliable bottom-6 player.

    Agreed. I had a little more hope after his solid Junior performance, but he has still turned into a nice depth forward. Not too much term or money on that deal.

    I cant wait to see how he deals with RyJo and what his contract ends up being. That will be the real test of his fortitude.

    Fun fact: Years back I was trimming my keepers and I kept Watson and Boone Jenner over some young kid who was in the KHL and hadn't really looked a sure thing to come over. Yeah, so Kucherov for Watson isn't that bad, right?
