He has 1 year RFA left at the end of this right?
Just checked CapFriendly and he'll be a UFA at the end -- which is the only part of this deal I don't like.
We are the Nevada of signing RFABeautiful, I knew Jarmo would get this done.
He'll take care of PLD too. These things take time....this isn't like counting ballots for a presidential election
He is. He's probably closer to the $4.2MM type player as paid in the last year of the deal. This is a really good deal for both sides. Low money out up front - this helps CBJ budget next 2 years - and the last year is a good negotiation point for the player if he performs as expected. He's a solid top 4 guy that has room to grow and improve. Love this deal. Let's us see where we are in a couple years too.That's about what was expected given his leverage, but it's worth remembering that Gavrikov is much better than a $2.8m player.
I had him at 4x4 so having him at so low for 2 years is pretty damn greatHe is. He's probably closer to the $4.2MM type player as paid in the last year of the deal.

Is there still time for me to send in my ballot on who to sign next?We are the Nevada of signing RFA
Better than being GeorgiaWe are the Nevada of signing RFA
Yes, but there is only one right candidate. If you don’t choose him, you are a threat to the franchise.Is there still time for me to send in my ballot on who to sign next?
So, we’ve got $8m in cap space now, let’s say we sign PLD for $6.5m AAV and put Dubinsky to LTIR, we should have around $6.5-$7m to fill a spot at wing
Putting Nyqvist on LTIR frees up another 5.5; Barring an internal cap there is plenty of room to add a Granlund or Hoffman or a lesser paid guy for a one year deal.
