Really? Not surprised that he's back, just surprised that he's back before the 1-3 lines are set. Maybe it's a favor to Pat Morris.

 

Nice to see Darcy is talking with Pat the hour before 12. :clapping:

BTW, Pat, do you have any other clients we should be talking to in an hour? :angel:

A little high, but as I said, I may be buying his jersey (though, we keep adding good players.)

 

I already have all 3 jerseys, but since they're spending so much money, I'm going to return the favor and get another one. I think I'll have to retire the Grier jersey to just the occasional BU game.

I have the home jersey (bought when it was a third), but have held off on one of the new ones because most of the players that I liked were on short contracts. Cody was one and now he'll be here a while.

Overpaid by, what, $200,000 a year? Who cares? I like that the team is rewarding a guy who busts his ass every time he's on the ice, stands up for his teammates, and throws some checks.

 

He's a fourth liner but he's a really good fourth liner. Plus this gives us time to develop Kassian and Foligno.

I just posted basically the same thing in the scary players thread. I agree 100%

I think you are right.

 

It is a high contract for him, but if you want a player, lock him up.

1.2 might be considered much for an enforcer type, but Cody shows up and plays the game every night he steps on the ice, and he doesn't take a whole lot of stupid penalties.

 

I'm happy with the deal. He's a great player to have. And it's really not that steep of a price, especially considering the raised cap.

I couldn't be happier to have McCormick back. Cody busts his ass way harder than Connolly ever did, and I'm excited to see Cody back in blue and gold.

Speaking of Timmay, theres been no word of the Sabres even talking to him yet, has there? (which would be a good thing)

Darcy has had conversations with his agent, but no offers have been laid out.

Love the signing, a lot for a 4th liner but he plays hard and I'd hate to lose that

 

Yep. Plays hard and generally doesn't run around like a nut taking a bunch of bad penalties. Good signing IMO.

Exactly. He knows his role and he's among the best in the league at it. Doesnt lose his head and come unglued lol Carcillo or Eager. He also isnt useless with the stick in his hands. Love it.

Whhheeeeeee!

 

 

I'm very glad Cody is back. I think it's a fair deal, too, considering what he brings to the team.

I love this. we are taking care of our own worhty guy for pennies. Think he's not a happy guy? This guy has a big heart and is well liked and respected by everyine in the room. Glad to be keeping him

remember the play where Enroth lost his helmet made the save and the guy was trying to bang it in and McCormick destroyed him? I just saw it again and am happy this guy is on our team for a couple more years. Good hard worker and the sort of 4th liner we need.
