Who Made Up Those Numbers

from John Shipley of the Pioneer Press,

Convinced his client has been the victim of a “character assassination,” Marian Gaborik’s agent Ron Salcer on Wednesday denied a handful of contract numbers that have surfaced recently in newspapers and blogs.

Salcer specifically denied a New York Post report that Gaborik is asking the Wild for a 10-year, $100 million deal, and said he has not received offers of $85 million over 10 years, $90 million over 10 years or $70 million over 10 years.

“When and if they do get offered,” he said, “maybe something will happen.”

I bet the agent originally had a hand in these stories being printed, so he could now state that ‘if these numbers were offered, maybe they would be accepted” etc…

Or not. oh well.

It does seems very suspicious for an agent to deny specific numbers, and then say that those numbers would make things happen.

HELLO??? EVERY GM IN THE LEAGUE, WE ARE CURRENTLY ACCEPTING OFFERS OF X DOLLARS OVER Y YEARS. SEE YOU ON JULY 1!!!!
