AND, just in time, it so happens that Tampa Bay will be hosting a "Vinny Celebration" and Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday, July 15th! They're advertising the event on their official webpage which includes the picture below.
With Alexander Ovechkin signing a 10 year deal and now LeCavalier signing for 11, it makes me wonder even more why Crosby and the Penguins didn't opt to make a similar long term deal. I mean, I understand, but I don't understand why it wouldn't be considered when all these other franchise players don't seem to have a problem with it. Wouldn't the Penguins want to lock up their franchise player too? My husband continues to reiterate the fact that both Crosby and Malkin will most likely be Penguins for their entire careers, then why wouldn't they sign a deal like this? Wouldn't it make more sense?
Like I've said before, this is why I'm not a GM (or an agent, for that matter)!
