One would hope so for a forwardThe third year seems excessive but he’s a very solid third pair guy. Someone getting traded?
This is a terrible contract lmao
Wha...how?

You're late. Since he got a GF he's out of their bachelorette circle.How much it matters is debatable but he’s part of a buddy group with Seth and Boone.
I’m generally ok with it. Does the third year have expansion ramifications?
Perfectly fine contract for what he brings to a third pair. Congrats to Harrington as he’s been a low maintenance good soldier for us.
The real question is what’s next as I can’t see Jarmo moving the guys he just signed (Murray, Harrington). As much as I like them — gotta be Nuti or Savard. But maybe even Werenski for a big forward fish.
Pretty classic CBJ signing. Overpay a bit for bottom pairing guys ($ and term).
Then try to win the negotiation with any good player.
Personally I don't understand the appeal of locking up a 3rd pairing dman (or 4th line forward) for multiple years.

Savard makes the most sense to me. Just based on who we have to replace him. Our defensive prospects who are ready, or close to ready, seem to be more like Savard than Nutivaara or Werenski. Having said that, Nutivaara or Werenski probably have more trade value. I am guessing other teams would probably want them more.

I’m still not understanding why the third year was necessary, either, but Harrington had arbitration rights, so maybe Jarmo just wanted to avoid that headache. I think a two year deal would have been just fine.
