Most Vancouver Canucks fans seem to be in agreeance that the new contract for Nikolay Goldobin should be a one-year “show me” deal, similar to the one Josh Leivo received from the Canucks earlier this offseason. Leivo’s deal carries a cap hit of $1.5 million, and from what I’ve seen and heard from others, I don’t think anyone believes Goldobin’s deal should have a higher dollar amount than Leivo’s.
To me, the perfect deal for Goldobin is a one-year deal at around the one million dollar mark –preferably at somewhere less than a million.
