I like the player, but I really don't know about the money. Here's why: he played on a line with Briere right? (If I'm wrong please set me straight). Who else used to play on a line with Briere and signed a long term deal for $5.5 mil? That's right, Jason Pominville. I hope Leino wasn't maybe just getting some inflated stats because of Briere.

Put him on a line with Ennis, the future Briere, and hopefully those stats will stay inflated :D

I was caught off guard by this big time. Kind o an overpayment but this might make B-rad choose buffalo.

They might be but I don't think so.

The combined cap-hit for Leino+Ehrhoff is probably going to be on par, if not less than Richards on his own...

I'm ok with this...

leino can play. i watched him in grand rapids. hes solid. finds himself in the right place at the right time.

is he overpaid? slightly, but the 6 years is what has me baffled.

If they don't plan on him playing center, who's getting voted off the island (Vanek, Stafford, Pommer, Ennis)???

+ Sekera = #1 center???

If they are out of Richards thing then maybe with Lenio signing they get a guy like stasny. Maybe getting rid of contracts like Pominville or Hecht and add a prospect like adam or some other ahler because Colorado need to meet the cap floor

I think that's become a lot more probable, now...

TSN.CA says we're still in the mix, Terry Pegula really wants him. No way are we out of it yet.

Well, we can still go over by 10%, so it CAN be done...

I love Leino but exactly where do we see him fitting? I'm not asking because I think he doesn't, I just don't know which line.

I still don't get why we gave him 6 years, though...
