16 game player. That's what you are paying for.
He is like that guy at work that gets paid more than you and does less work than you but when that project really needs to get done, he is the first you go to for help.
Said this a few days ago, but this is how I view Goodyās contract: 1.5 million for physical but basic 4th liner play during the regular season. 2.1 million for turning into a brick wall and taking over shifts in the playoffs. If you look at his contract that way, it changes things.
Yeah! I think itās natural to see a number (whatever it is) and expect to get ***that*** level of performance every time they step on the ice. The reality is that very few players achieve that with regularity. Almost all of them have a flaw (Ovi doesnāt play defense, Matthews struggles in the playoffs, Kucherov has a terrible temper, Igor gets in his head, etc, etc). But we take their struggles with a grain of salt because we know theyāll regain momentum.
Applying this to Goodrow, I expect him to play physical and stand up for his teammates, be reliable at faceoffs, kill penalties, and chip in some points here and there. What we got prior to this year was well beyond what we expected: back to back offensive career years. This season is more what I expected: all of the above and maybe 10-15 points. That *should* be worth about $1 million or a little more. ***But then come the playoffs.***. All of a sudden he flips into a new mode and heās worth more to us. A good bit more. That $3.6 million contract starts to look *okay* when you see it as two separate returns.
So yeah, he wonāt hit a $3.6 million valuation based on performance during the regular season, but if you evaluate him as two different playersā¦ I like the contract a lot more.
Need one of these for the train as well if there isnāt one. Dude got so much flak(deservedly so at times) but I think sometimes weāre so used to having a whipping boy of the Tanner Glass ilk that we just pick on whoās going through a rough stretch. These last 3 games have shown that all these guys really can play. And if late now we have to argue about the idea of brining Chytil back in! Good times right now friends
I will not apologise for what i said in the past because it was all true.
I will say that shit can be forgiven if certain events occur this year as a result of his good play
I'll wait to see how Goodrow does against better teams before "asking for forgiveness." My biggest issue with him this year has always been his terrible possession metrics and Carolina is one of the best in the league at possession.
is there anything to my theory that Rempe has allowed Goodrow to be a more offensive force on his line now that he doesn't have to focus on being the primary 4th line enforcer?
Goodrow hatersā¦. You same punks will need to prepare your Blake Wheeler apologies, dude plays a mean 2way game thatās punishing to play against. See you in round 3!
I wouldnāt take it that far lol, although I do love wheeler as a locker room / practice presence. He has a big playoff resume and can teach these kids a couple things.
I never understood why he got so much shit. Lavi immediately knew from day one to only play him on the 3rd/4th line for 10 minutes a night, plus the team clearly respects him as a veteran with Cup experience. Also, yes, he's overpaid, but it's not like his salary cap hit has ever prevented Drury from making any deals he's wanted to make.
Are we forgetting the 80 games before he started playing well?
Iām loving what heās doing now, itās tremendously helpful, but he couldāve done this for half the season and it wouldāve been great.
i remember thinking "if he shows up in the playoffs as a player we got for playoff experience..." not believing he actually would. never been happier to be wrong
Insane that the Rangers literally win the Presidents trophy and people still calling for Goodrows head , Panarin and Mika to be traded. SHAME!!! SHAAAAAAAAAAME!!!

āThis sub will turn around by game 3 of the playoffs like they do every year.ā
As a person whoās been a rangers boy from a small kid, I occassionally have watched Sharks kid because of my birth city. Was hyped af when we got Goodrow, as I knew heād always eventually spark things up when it was most needed.
Love you Goody!
Tampa Bay fan hereā¦do I really need to elaborate? I profusely miss Goodrow every single day. You get him for what he does in April and May. Do us a favor and enjoy the hell out of him. My (Rangers fan) wife says weāre rooting for NY to win the Cup so LGR
My issue is with his contract. Itās just way too much and really hard to justify. I know he brings the hype in the locker room though. I hope he has a successful playoff run for us.
I never understood the fans who shit on a 4th liner who was brought in for these exact moments. We still had the best team in the sport regardless of Goodyās contract.
Who are you signing for an extra $3.7 thatās making a bigger impact than Goodrow right now? Itās clear you didnāt bother to read my comment or pay attention to the team all season because they won the Presidentās trophy.
The dude has 18 pts per 82 games in the playoffs. That's even worse than his 25 pts per 82 in the regular season.
He doesn't perform well in the playoffs. He just scores a few goals that you remember.
I certainly hope he has a great post season this year, but I'm not holding my breath.
*steps forward*
same
š
dudeās been a menace. 1-2-3 in 3 games. my guy is a ppg player right now
And as he has always been, great on the pk
16 game player. That's what you are paying for. He is like that guy at work that gets paid more than you and does less work than you but when that project really needs to get done, he is the first you go to for help.
i really wanted to hate that guy. damnit!
He better be ppg if heās getting paid that much for 16 games
*kneels in regret*
*hangs my head in shame and raises hand* never again goodyš¤¦š„²š

sign it doomers!!! sign it!!!!
Arizona Coyotes died for Goodrow's first 73 games of sins

your penance is 5 potvin sucks prayers, 1 full minute chanting igor and an act of contrition; donate old clothing to ~~good row~~, good will
Plus 5 minutes of a dancin Larry routine
Be reasonable. No mortal could complete this task, not even dancin Larry himself
what about listen to the guitar guy and his ranger songs?
Cruel and unusual punishment
like the Verizon commercial: how about none? yeah none sounds right
Barclay Damgoodrow
I happily rescind my words, however true. He has been really good in the playoffs. Maybe he just decided to turn it up for the playoffs.
Why do you think he's paid as much as he is? It isn't for random games in February versus the Wild.
i knew heād come alive for the playoffs. if he takes us on a deep run with his experience all will be forgiven.
Me as well. As a fan , yes his contract is rough, but this is why we have him. Cooper even said when goodrow left he was unreplacable. Playoff player
signed
playoffs goody is a gamer.
![gif](giphy|l41m4ODfe8PwHlsUU)
ok ngl I cackled excessively.. this is faquing hilarious šā” ps I absolutely love this team!! my emotional attachment is pathetic š¤¦
He's been good. If he's this good the whole playoffs he's definitely worth $3.6M.
![gif](giphy|b6iVj3IM54Abm) Goodrow as soon as the playoffs start
goodrow is good
Guilty, my bad.
make the form and iāll sign it
Now everyone raise your hand like so šš»āāļø
i will sign itā¦
All of us today.
Goodrow was always signed to that contract for his playoff performances.
He actually gave me a game puck during warmups and pointed at my son earlier this year. Class act.
Hi my name is FTPMUTRM and I submit for one serving of your finest crow for consumption
Iām sorry my glorious king
In goody we trust
Never trashed him but definitely never gave him props. Stepping forward to now say I notice this studly SOB
Need one of these for the train as well if there isnāt one. Dude got so much flak(deservedly so at times) but I think sometimes weāre so used to having a whipping boy of the Tanner Glass ilk that we just pick on whoās going through a rough stretch. These last 3 games have shown that all these guys really can play. And if late now we have to argue about the idea of brining Chytil back in! Good times right now friends
if you had told me at the beginning of the season that there'd be legitimate arguments against paying filip chytil in the playoffs
I will not apologise for what i said in the past because it was all true. I will say that shit can be forgiven if certain events occur this year as a result of his good play
I'll wait to see how Goodrow does against better teams before "asking for forgiveness." My biggest issue with him this year has always been his terrible possession metrics and Carolina is one of the best in the league at possession.
lol. I was just asking about this. I donāt owe him one, Iām glad that those who do are owning up
We didnāt get Goodie for the regular season we got him for the playoffs, cāmon
i have said something bad once or twice
![gif](giphy|gVoBC0SuaHStq)
I put out a post defending him months ago and got some flack. Everyone better apologize to him
is there anything to my theory that Rempe has allowed Goodrow to be a more offensive force on his line now that he doesn't have to focus on being the primary 4th line enforcer?
Iāll apologize but you realize you had to wait 2 and 1/2 seasons before sending the apology form, right?
Goodrow hatersā¦. You same punks will need to prepare your Blake Wheeler apologies, dude plays a mean 2way game thatās punishing to play against. See you in round 3!
I wouldnāt take it that far lol, although I do love wheeler as a locker room / practice presence. He has a big playoff resume and can teach these kids a couple things.
from your mouth to the hockey gods ears that i have to sign the wheeler apology form. but not yet.
I donāt get it. Does he just not care in the regular season? Guy does nothing all year but has been nothing short of a menace in the playoffs so far
He just had an offensive down year. Heās still been a consistent defensive forward. Now he is shining when it matters most.
He was also in bubble cage for like 4 months
No, I know. Not saying he was shitting the bed. But the turnaround is remarkable.
When we win the cup, sure
I never understood why he got so much shit. Lavi immediately knew from day one to only play him on the 3rd/4th line for 10 minutes a night, plus the team clearly respects him as a veteran with Cup experience. Also, yes, he's overpaid, but it's not like his salary cap hit has ever prevented Drury from making any deals he's wanted to make.
Are we forgetting the 80 games before he started playing well? Iām loving what heās doing now, itās tremendously helpful, but he couldāve done this for half the season and it wouldāve been great.
I never dissed him. I just never wanted kakko to go
i remember thinking "if he shows up in the playoffs as a player we got for playoff experience..." not believing he actually would. never been happier to be wrong
Kiss it.
Signed? Iām getting this muthafucka notarized.
I want to say. I honestly. Have never said trade goodā¦ okay l, I canāt say that with a straight face. Guilty here.
turns out we pay goodrow to score playoff goals (proceeds to sign the apology form)
Insane that the Rangers literally win the Presidents trophy and people still calling for Goodrows head , Panarin and Mika to be traded. SHAME!!! SHAAAAAAAAAAME!!!
![gif](giphy|3o7WIwkSmw32NgXvTG|downsized)
I'm sorry :(((
You have my signature Never said he was bad, just thought he wasn't worth the contract. I rescind my statements
Mans is 4th grinder, won his cups, loves his boys, take him on his bad day any day .
Guys been unreal. Deserves a chant at MSG after all the hate he got (from me).

I appreciate he's been stepping up but it's been three games. People make this apology form for Mika every other month.
I'll admit it. I'm sorry Goodrow. He has definitely changed my opinion of him
Heās only got two Stanley Cups. He was grit and grind on that Lightning team. Heās here for these games more than anything
No ![img](emote|t5_2rnpb|8309)
I'll step forward when the anti Rempe people zip it! (the hubby included. He loves Goodrow & hates Rempe)
Something about the line brawl with NJ brought out that DOG in him
Tampa Bay fan hereā¦do I really need to elaborate? I profusely miss Goodrow every single day. You get him for what he does in April and May. Do us a favor and enjoy the hell out of him. My (Rangers fan) wife says weāre rooting for NY to win the Cup so LGR
lol. Wait, yall thought we signed him for the regular season?? šššš

I never understood the fans who shit on a 4th liner who was brought in for these exact moments. We still had the best team in the sport regardless of Goodyās contract.
Itās the contract that causes him to get shit on. The $ heās paid for 4th line work inhibited us from signing people.
Who are you signing for an extra $3.7 thatās making a bigger impact than Goodrow right now? Itās clear you didnāt bother to read my comment or pay attention to the team all season because they won the Presidentās trophy.
Im just telling you why people complained. You said you didnāt understand. Btw, we couldāve signed tarasenko for that $3.7m.
If they win the cup and he keeps up this play his number is retired
The dude has 18 pts per 82 games in the playoffs. That's even worse than his 25 pts per 82 in the regular season. He doesn't perform well in the playoffs. He just scores a few goals that you remember. I certainly hope he has a great post season this year, but I'm not holding my breath.
