It's probably a two year bridge at a lower amount to see if he keeps improving or if he stagnates. Good for the team and him imoCongrats Landie!!
4 or 5 years would have been nice! It would give Draisaitl and Yakimov some more development time.
Cogliano is playing on their 4th libeI'm curious what the money will be but I'm glad they got him resigned.
Watching Cogliano last night was really frustrating. It's part of the reason this team has struggled for so long - letting young pieces go while getting nothing but futures in return. Hopefully this deal is a sign that the Oilers are recognizing the importance of keeping young players around.
Very very deserved.
Thanks MacT for not screwing this up

I think he will be our 3rd line center for a while once Draisaitl is ready for his 2nd line duties. Yakimov or someone else will be our 4th liner I thinnDepending on his UFA status, the term is perfect. If he's the heir apparent to Gordon, and Gordon's deal is up after next season, then we get one more year of grooming and one year as the de facto checking center (for lack of a better term) before his next contract.
I just hope he remains an RFA after those years. He'll be 26 when the deal is over, and I don't know what that means in terms of UFA status.
Love this kid. To me, he's the Swedish Fernando Pisani (who plays C).
Is he a UFA or RFA at the end?
... I miss capgeek :x
