For what it's worth, JR tried to keep him and was willing to give whatever Zaddy wanted.donlever wrote: ↑Wed Mar 18, 2026 4:53 pm Good thing we didn't waste any money on this guy you fucking guys.

- JRAt the end, Zadorov was talking close with Tocchet while Patrik [Allvin] was talking to his agent. Tocchet would ask him ‘what’s it going to take to keep you here.’ And Zadorov said he had to get his contract to US$5-million [annually] and then he’d be set. So we got him to US$5-million. But then there was still no deal.
So, Rick said to him ‘what’s going on?’ And then he said: ‘Well if I can get to six years then I’ll stay.’ Same process. We said okay. So twice in that process he said give me that one more thing and I’ll stay and then we give it to him and then he goes to Boston.
