Smart signing on Eller, happy they locked up Center depth
I think Eller's pretty underrated... great condition, skates hard, stick handles like a beast, and can pot some goals
If Caps can get a solid 2nd pair Dman they'll have as good a lineup as any in the East

Alright then. Five years is a lot but he'll still only be 33 at the end. Sound deal and also pretty tradeable if necessary.

EDIT: 34

Good. He is having a great season.

This is the kind of contract that a team can unload for a good return at any point. This is not great news for one of Stephenson or Boyd, though.

Very good deal and nice to not have to worry about 3C in the offseason.

Love this deal. Good cap hit for a guy that has played very well this year. Wonder if this means Beagle will test the market and Stephenson becomes the 4C next year

Top3 centers all soft euros?

Make sure you have enough to drink.

Anyway. Kinda fair. Eller is working with different types of players and isn't injury prone. Should be ok in the long run.

Now get us NB back.
