I know it can't be a bad thing for any GM to have your best forward lockup for 8 yrs, but it's surprising that a GM that it supposed to not be back next year sign that kind of extension

Very happy it's done early and not something to worry about as the season rolls along.

Hopefully this looks like a steal in the next few years. Happy to see long term contracts going to kids who earned it, for once. No need to worry about him for a while now.

Now do Romanov and OS Necas next year! LOL Suck it Dundon!

Well if they did not want MB to make decisions he should be canned.

Very MB-style though. He did the same with a couple other of our core players - settle extension wayyy early. Seems like it's a good thing imo, the Gallagher and Petry contract were under market, I'm hopeful the Suzuki one will be under market too.

 

[Vachon23]

Biggest contract giving to a forward in Habs history if I'm not mistaken

 

[Licou]

This is really great news. Avoiding major distractions is always a good thing, especially when it concerns your best skater.

Craig Rivet. The gift that keeps on giving...

Yes, but that is a major decision but it's a move that any GM would be confutable with

Because Suzuki is more important than Bergevin

 

[ottawa]

Good deal if he can become a perennial ~70pts player, which I think he will imo. Kid is the real deal.

The two have absolutely nothing to do with each other imo. Totally different situations
