Our top line of forwards sure doesn’t play like you’d expect from the top line of the number one team in the country. Despite 29’s game winner, he skates like he was drinking beer with Cole Smith all summer in Brainard, not working out.
Amen to that. If the kid has turned things around and there is evidence from his recent coaches that he has, they should have held their ground. I hope there is more to this than it appears, because it looks like we took the chickensxxt way out. Probably won't see any press releases from Chaves or Berry thanking Armacost for having their backs. Armacost should take a look at the edition of the Alumni Review in honor of President Clifford's passing and read the testimonials from kids who Tom Clifford took a chance on.
Jost signs minimum one year contract to return to Avs. Forecast in the Denver Post is that he will have to fight for a spot on the 4th line. Trade value is about a bag of pucks and a few sticks.

according to CapFriendly, he made 925K his first two years and $2.325 million his last two years in Vancouver
Sounds to me like he took $1.7 per year to play for Detroit. He was making $2.3 in Vancouver. I'm assuming those were both quoted in US dollars, but I'm not sure. Anyway, he got a job with a good organization, although they've been down for awhile.
Just got on Google and was reminded that he had a likely season ending injury back in Feb. torn rib cartilage. He came back about a month earlier than expected before the season was called.
i agree. He is playing hurt.
