  1. Big time prove it year for the guy hope he is able to ball out. I thought he was pretty bad last year when he was up to be honest so my hype has fallen quite a bit from 2 years ago. Excited to see what he can do this year will a clear path to the lineup

  2. Honestly surprised we saw this before Seider & Raymond.

    Hopefully that means that something is coming soon and not that they still can’t come to an agreement so Yzerman just figured he’d knock out Berggren.

  3. Awesome deal, really hoping he pops off and earns himself 3-4 millions on the next contract!

    With this deal in place the Raymond and Seider deals becomes bit simpler to sign.

  4. That’s fair for him

    He’s fighting for a middle 6 spot assuming 2 of Kane/Cat/Tarasenko have those locked there’s really only 3rd line wing with Copp and Ras

    At that’s without considering Kasper, Mazur, Danielson or MBN

    He’s not a 4th liner either

    Will be interesting to see if and where he sticks

  5. This must mean Mo and Raymond will be done soon right? The feeling was Berggren kinda got what’s left?

  6. I’m gonna miss seeing him in GR, that playoff run had so many magical moments. Can’t wait to see what he does in Detroit!

  7. Is it an NHL-only contract?

    I really like the guy. I think two years ago he solidly earned his spot and he played his ass off. But the team got better, and I’m not sure he improved enough to really stay on the team. It sounds like the coaching staff wanted more out of him, and more defensive responsibility.

    But he is so good in the AHL it’s crazy. I went to I think five Griffins games last year, and he was almost always the best guy on the ice when he was on. He and Edvinsson were so far above the other guys it wasn’t even fun.

    It just goes to show what kind of jumps there are between the leagues.

    I hope he steps up and earns that spot again, and I believe he can.

  8. At this price, especially, this is a good deal! This is him getting his chance to prove where he belongs, and not overpaying here helps with affording Mo and Razor! Let’s hope the good news keeps rolling in today!

  9. Absolute prove it deal for Burger man. Hope he does prove it and can make a little more next year
