2 More Years of BJ!

by hildymac on Jul 5, 2009 7:32 PM CDT

When I get the link I'll post it, but several people I follow on Twitter just posted that we've re-signed BJ Crombeen to a 2 year deal, no dollar terms known yet.

In 81 GP split between us an the Stars (heh, talk about some highway robbery), Crombeen's been responsible for 12 goals and 10 assists with an over -9 +/- rating. I'm glad to see us still working on wrapping stuff up, but I have yet to hear anything encouraging about Polak.

I must admit to doing a double-take when I saw your headline...

You’ve inadevertently described every man’s fondest wish. :-D

LOL.

Sorry about that… I probably should have just said “2 more years of Crombeen!” but would any of you fellas paid attention?

I thought so. :D

Man

I was so happy once I read that headline. Still happy that he resigned, but not as happy as two years worth of BJ. Oh well. Now we just need to wrap up this Polak deal.

Barret Jackman is my hero.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

Polak

Its sort of silly to think he won’t be a blue next year. His negotiations are taking longer than expected but it happens. He’s not a big name player, he’s a rookie pretty much, he isn’t really a position people are looking for(defensive defenseman) there’s no reason another team would make him an offer. He really has no negotiating power with us since hes got no arbitration and an RFA. He’s probably holding out for an extra 250k or something and the blue’s will wait till he realizes no one else is going to make him an offer and then resign him for 1mil -1.25mil for 3-4 years.

Good to see beej back though, the whole team played hard last year and I really like knowing I get to see them again next year. We will still probably struggle to make the playoffs next year but even if we don’t, I don’t mind losing with players I like still knowing our time is coming.
