Re: [Hockey] Are the Islanders for real? The LA Lakers signed Magic Johson to a 25 year deal in 1984. He turned out fine.

Technically he still has 3 more years before his contract expires.

said by HiVolt:Holy crap, 15 year deal, for a goalie that still has to prove himself? You know, I thought they were nuts for signing that nutjob Yashin for 10 years That's what I thought when I read about the deal this afternoon. They are still trapped by Yashin's deal and turn around and sign an even longer deal with someone who has yet to prove he's anything above a standard-issue NHL goalie.
Yashin for Chara, the draft pick that got Spezza and Bill Muckalt -- what a deal.....for the Sens!

I'd argue that Magic Johnson was "the real deal" the moment he arrived in the league, a superstar in a very short time and is arguably one of the greatest ever. I just can't see myself calling DiPietro any of these things yet, if ever.
