[Rw-Signed] Deryk Engelland 1 year, $700K

[Dennis]

Deryk Engelland signs the team-friendliest deal possible.


Vegas Golden Knights✔@GoldenKnights

The Golden Knights have re-signed Deryk Engelland to a one-year contract!!! #VegasBornhttp://vgk.io/7b2Ap

[als_revenge]

Engelland's contract has a base salary of $700,000 and incentives that could total up to an average annual value of $1,500,000.

Except that Deryk Engelland is well, well below replacement level in pretty much every regard. There's no possible contract he could sign that would be team friendly.

[newfcollins]

He was a Vegas resident before being selected by the Knights in the expansion draft a few years back, so there's probably a good reason to sign him there that goes beyond his on-ice performance.

With Vegas tight against the cap I'm a little surprised at the bonus structure. I wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk of this ends up as a 2020-21 cap hit.

Yeah that's not great, especially for a guy who is below replacement level.
