Finger has been quite the pick up for Toronto, though maybe a little overpaid Jeff Finger is one of the Leafs best physical defenceman and Im happy TO has him
Basically he got paid average money for a free agent defenceman. It makes me laugh that people blow this deal way out of proportion. If he pans out he was a decent signing and if he doesn't...... the rich Leafs lost nothing but money. At most the Leafs lost 1-2 million a year if he turns out to be below average. Now if you want to compare the steal the Redwings made to retain Brad Stuart...... that's different. Comparing Finger and Stuart at the same money would be unfair. Wings got a bargain.
lmao 3.5 over 4 years for a guy in his late 20's, with contracts going up you'll be surprised this guy has tons of upside. Best part of all he doesn't have a no trade clause and we can waive him if he does terrible..Sounds like a win-win to me, if he's a steal this coming year we will have 3 more years of Finger
I agree with what you stated, but the part I can't wrap my head around, is that they signed a guy for big money who was a healthy scratch for the majority of playoff games last season. That doesn't make sense to me. Sounds like the Leafs of old.
They paid him $4M cause hes got potential too be a star defenceman like kabrale. Tthere paying kabby $4.5 i think for the next 2-3 seasons thats pretty good price cause hes like one of the best defenceman in the league. There are so many teams that would love to have him but if jeff finger grows too be that good well thats $4m well spent in the NHL. And plus the leafs have tons of money if there was no salary cap the leafs would be on the top with the most payroll new york and montreal #2 and #3
you are in the spot light of being a over paid hockey player, and thats wut u r nowin for the NHL just a over paid hockey is wut u r

I agree, Kabrale is one of the few bright stars on the Leafs. I have never heard any other fan of a different team hate on him.
Finger like Blake was offered big money on "potential." Hopefully it pays off if not the Leafs better stop signing these guys to huge contracts.
