Cogs is 8 months younger. Which makes me think a Cogs signing is incoming, if he would take the same $1 Million.
Shhhhh!!!!!Cogs is 8 months younger. Which makes me think a Cogs signing is incoming, if he would take the same $1 Million.
I don't know why this Comeau signing is this hotly discussed. The Stars needed to another forward that fullfill forward requirements of the expansion draft to not have to expose Pavelski and go into RFA contract negotiation with Dickinson early . They signed a known quantity to a close to vet minimum contract.
There's nothing wrong with this contract. It's cheap and Comeau was still better than most guys who played last season.
Thanks to the injuries there was legitimate argumet in some games that Comeau was the 4th/5th best forward on the active roster .
i was told there would be no math.Lots of math guys in this thread
Cogliano is also a few years younger, so he could have been looking more in the 1.5-1.75 range or 2+ years. You never know.

Cogliano has a better reputation around the league. Thats the only reason he'd be getting more money. He's not that much younger . Comeau February 1986 , Cogs June 1987 .
Well i guess the 35+ thing makes a difference right now.
He’s not going to get buried though . He will play every game he’s healthy .Comeau can be buried or waived at almost no cost so it should be actually impossible to hate this signing. Even if you don't think he fits in the team, just let him be buried when it doesn't work out.
Yup Comeau is Bones’ natural viagraHe’s not going to get buried though . He will play every game he’s healthy .
Comeau will play for sure, but it is worth noting his usage didn’t see much of a jump despite having no Seguin, Radulov, or Kiviranta for most of the season. Bowness did play young offensive guys like Gurianov and Robertson more than Comeau. Even Dickinson played more than Comeau.Yup Comeau is Bones’ natural viagra

For the record, I would have rather explored free agency before signing Comeau,
Perhaps it's a case of the devil you know being better than the one you don't? Yes, there are several similar wingers out there, but at the very least, you have to teach them the system, which could take a quarter season, there may or may not be chemistry with the linemates you want to put them with, and they may not be as good in the locker room, or too injury prone, etc.
Fans always seem to think the grass is greener somewhere else. It's just not always the case.
