Confirmed Signing with Link: [COL] F Nathan MacKinnon signs extension with the Avalanche (8 years, $12.6M AAV)

It's hilarious that some people think $1-$2 million is the difference between the Avs having future success or not. They paid MacKinnon with the Makar savings. It all worked out, and as a fan of a team in their division, this makes me unhappy.

EJ's $6m cap hit also comes off the books when this takes effect, so it's not like they even need to do anything to make space.
