Gould, a Joker for 4 more years

The press conference confirmed the good news, Maurice Gould signed a 4 years extension.  At only 10,500,000$, we can say that it's an excellent deal for the club.  A member of the organisation told us that at first, Gould asked for 16,17,18,18 and 20M, a little bit too pricey for a player who have one more year in arbitration.  So there was a long discussion between the player and the management and finally, they agree to a deal that satisfy both side.  Gould knew that he accepted a bit less but he really want to continue here in Vegas. "The team really want to win and treat their players like a familly member.  I trust mister Angelil (the owner) when he say that he want to build something strong here, and Las Vegas is a really good place to play."  The management really want a long term contract with their ace and now that is done, we need to concentrate at making the playoff.

Because the team performance is a bit irregular theses last weeks.  After loosing their last 4 games in august and play only .500 in september.  They saw their lead melt from 9.5 games to only 6.  So the next week is important to regain a bit of this lead and be able to rest some key players in the last week of the season.
