Confirmed Signing with Link: [EDM] Darnell Nurse signs extension with the Oilers (8 years, $9.25M AAV) PART II

[BigDaddyLurch]

Love how they locked Hopkins, Nurse and Hyman for 8, 9 and 7 years. They are playing a long game. Smart.

...yup...and in that long game, there's one playoff series win between the three of them...

 

[SuterHaglshev]

9 years cause this was an extension. This contract could look rough halfway through if he can’t repeat last season

He definitely will be in Arizona or Buffalo the last two years of his contract!!

@Zirakzigil uhhhh...no he's making the same as Brayden Point.

Holland needs to be checked out by Edmonton's medical team.

Awful.

... but he's not making the same money as Point.

NET Incomes:
Darnell Nurse - $4,429,980
Brayden Point - $5,258,935

Point will make 20% more than Nurse starting next year... that's a significant difference.

 

[Turin]

Dougie Hamilton & Seth Jones setting the market.

Darnell Nurse at 9.25m is average money for a #1 defenseman. Three years from now Oilers fans will have nothing to worry about...

Eight years at age 26 no worries.

Hamilton set the market but he’s actually elite, unlike Jones and Nurse. He’d be well over a point per game playing with McDrai all day and have better defensive results to boot.

...no State Income Tax in Florida...

 

[jetsforever]

Wow that's a very steep contract for Nurse
Is Edmonton following the Toronto strategy of just a few giant contracts?

Then:
5258935 - 4429980 = 828955

828955 / 4429980 = .1871 = roughly 20%

 

[pandro]

It looks reasonable for now, but the last 8 years of that deal are going to be brutal for the Oilers.

...or, in Layman's Terms, roughly an Evander Kane weekend in Vegas...

When did Chiarelli come back?

 

[Artemi Panarin]

That AAV is nasty.

 

[Heffyhoof]

They learned from Toronto and are making one of their trio of massive contracts a defenseman at least

 

[sansabri]

Holland really is a dinosaur

 

[McDoused]

Despite everyone else losing their minds, I'm very happy to have nurse back for 9 more years.

 

[T REX]

...no State Income Tax in Florida...

And how many other places?

Get a real GM.

I'd rather you use the LTIR garbage.

 

[Three On Zero]

It’s mind boggling, Holland isn’t doing much better than Chia.

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

fire Ken Holland now

 

[LeHab]

Would be a good deal in CAD currency.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Thanks Bowman.

 

[DFF]

It’s great that everyone got paid before they won anything.

edmonton doesn’t sound bad at all

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Wholly cow. Good player but wow . Not long ago he was a whipping boy...its absolute madness that Pie took 8.5 only a year ago. In this market he approaches 11 mil imo.

 

[Jannik Hansen]

Are the Oilers aware that Nurse was on the ice for more goals against than anyone else in the league?

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Dear god in heaven that is awful
