Excellent

 

[Enoch]

Best news of the offseason! Fair price. Long term deal. Gives us a bit of flexibility. Love it.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

6 x 6....There it is. Nice!!

 

[Scoresberg]

What. A. Deal.

Shut up, Poile-haters. He's legit.

 

[Cashville]

**** yeah; 100% good with this, deserves every penny

 

[Filip Forceberg]

Fantastic deal.

 

[MrJoshua]

Solid deal, definitely lower than I expected. Good term at a reasonable cap hit. And now Poile has a much better idea where the team stands against the cap.

Well done DP. Lower than I expected and the term is just right.

Fantastic news. How Swede is it to have your 21 year old forward locked up long term?


Give credit where it is due, Poile got the job done and came under what I expected. Now let's get to partying.

feeling the same way all of you do.

6x6 is a great deal. Glad to have this deal done.

What. A. Deal.

Shut up, Poile-haters. He's legit.

Exactly this. Poile does it again.

This is a beauty of a deal. A sweet spot for term and total.

What. A. Deal.

Shut up, Poile-haters. He's legit.

Yep. Well done Poile.

Otherwise.....

Good Preds news in the summer? This can't be right!

Seriously FANGTASTIC signing!!

 

[Byrddog]

Well pleased thought it would be 6.5 to 7. This kid is going to really clean up next contract if he continues to produce.

Great news to wake up to!

 

[Lateralous]

Wow, that is a fantastic deal. Poile is really giving himself some flexibility next summer when the Fisher and Ribero deals are up.

[Adz]

One day I will figure out gifs but until then, yours have captured my mood entirely.

Great news! Poile...Shea bopped him and he started making some excellent moves.

Wow, that is a fantastic deal. Poile is really giving himself some flexibility next summer when the Fisher and Ribero deals are up.

I think I see almost 13 million coming off with Ribs, Fish, Nystrom, and a tiny bit from Watson.

Is that right?

Is that right?

If Nystrom is bought out, he stays on the books for another year. However Jackman and Clune ($283K) come off of the books. Also, Stalberg's hit goes up 500K.

wish he would have signed a lifetime contract but i reckon i will settle for this.
