"Re-signs"

Seems similar to the Justin Faulk deal. A little more now to save more later.

Slavin 7y 5.3per

Woop

 

[MinJaBen]

Awesome! That is a good deal if he doesn't improve one bit. It is a fantastic deal if he does.

Sorry, was so excited. Maybe Dave or someone else can change that?

ron francis is a golden god

faulk's deal was backloaded, actually. wouldn't be surprised if slavin's is as well. the 5.3M is just the average.

This contract takes him to, what, 31? That's insane.

 

[GoldiFox]

The Canes have Jaccob Slavin holding down the #1 for the next 8 years. I'm beyond pumped. If Francis had waited one more year he would be looking at an Ekblad extension instead.

Thanks!

And yeah, I love this contract.

Yeah, that's what I meant, though looking now at that I thought he made more in year 2.

 

[Roboturner913]

I had thought $5.5. Nice deal. This probably puts Pesce in that $4m neighborhood at least though, which is a little worrisome.

 

[Guy]

I am ok with this.

 

[AD Skinner]

party time, excellent

 

[Buenos Necas]

Great news, glad RF was able to get it done this summer

 

[Mathios]

Good deal now. Great deal in a couple of years.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Excellent!

I wonder if Ron wants to lock up Hanifin and Pesce this summer as well.

 

[What the Faulk]

This buys out, what, 4 years of UFA and he still signed for a reasonable amount? These are the players you sign for 7-8 years. Not 31 year olds.

 

[Novacane]

Very happy with this

 

[Tryamw]

Glad to get him locked up for a while. Wrose then I wanted (I can dream right) not worse then I feared

Keeps him in a Cane's jersey for a long time. Now some more

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

This is amazing work by GMRF. I look forward to seeing if he can get a few more done this summer. We are going to be a playoff team for a long long time.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Relative to his closest comparable, H. Lindholm, Slavin is getting an extra ~100k per to give up an extra two years of UFA. Good deal in that respect.

 

[GoldiFox]

I had thought $5.5. Nice deal. This probably puts Pesce in that $4m neighborhood at least though, which is a little worrisome.

Sign me up for a $4 million x 7 year Pesce extension.

 

[Roboturner913]

Pesce's value is only going to go up and up from here. Might as well get it done soon.

 

[caniac247]

Love this deal. Way to go GMRF.

With Slavin living in Raleigh during the offseason, a now cornerstone player for this franchise, can we just go ahead and give him the 'C'?

They are holding a press conference at 1:30pm today, wonder if maybe they will announce him as captain.
