TurnDaddy 323 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Throughout the season, defenseman Tony Stark was rumored to be testing the free agency market at the conclusion of the season. That's not going to happen anymore as he and Calgary came to terms on a new deal this evening that will keep Stark in Calgary for 3 more seasons. The aging journeyman will be entering his 5th full season in the VHL and only has 3 years of eligibility left after Season 40. The deal is for 3 years and worth $9 million, a fair deal for both sides. "Hitting free agency was something that was on my mind. I wanted to know what my worth on the open market, something every player wants to do, but the closer the end of the season loomed, the more I wanted to strike something with Calgary. I'm glad we got this done." Stark has not talked much about how he plans to finish out his career as far as what season he plans on retiring, so Calgary is taking a slight risk with this signing. He could retire at the conclusion of season 40, or any season between now and the conclusion of this new contract. Another question surrounding this deal is a pretty big one...With automatic depreciation coming up for Stark, will he actually earn enough practice hours to be able to overcome that? Calgary thinks so, otherwise why would they sign him? diamond_ace 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/12161-calgary-inks-stark/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

701 309 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 So you still think Ponder (if used to his full potential) is better than Rodgers? Goodness. I won't twist your words at all, that sounds retarded any way you put it. Call me when you guys have at least one trophy in your cupboard. His full potential, aka sitting him until he learned the game fully and didn't rush his play. And what a surprise, Kendrick goes to the past for an arguement.

Cassel? 701 you spout your mouth about the vikings being better and all that and I commend you for being loyal to your team, but come on. At least frescoelmo has some success to talk about. Vikings fans can't really say much to hold weight in a NFL argument.
