I found out by logging onto Facebook and one of my friend's status said, "Fear the Grier! For one more year!" haha.

It's only 200k more than he made last year. No difference really.

As long as he was given under $1.5M, I was gonna be happy. So, I'm happy with it :D

Get Marleau!


Please no! Marleau is not a player that is going to make noise in the playoffs and will be highly overpaid come offseason which Buffalo won't go after.

Seems a little high to me, but definitely in the ball park of his market value. And it's only 1 year, so I like the motivation factor of more money. If I had it my way, everybody would only be allowed one year deals just like Mike Bossy did it.

It's a slight raise, which he definitely deserved from this team.

Yeah I saw it on facebook as well. I'm happy to see Grier back. Then a few minutes later I saw rumors or Miller to the Wings on ESPN. then the word "debunked". But shit, it still still gave me a small heart attack. If they let him go, they would have like 5 people in the stands next season. lol.

Why would Miller ever go to the Wings?

He signed in July of his last year of that contract, he never was going anywhere.

But I like the Grier being back next year.

Red Wings will "kick the tires on acquiring Ryan Miller"

Just some guy trying to rehash old rumors during the offseason.

Well, with Howard's retirement looming, the wings need a goaltender...
