Oh yeah.

 

[AD Skinner]

They made svech happen

The deal will pay Svechnikov an average-annual value (AAV) of $7.75 million per season through 2028-29.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Wow, I was willing to go higher if needed, but this sounds great.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

No effing way.

If that's really the AAV - holy crap.

 

[MinJaBen]

I like that AAV. Nice to see the front office get a good deal in place on an important core player.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Within two years this will be on Dom's "Top 10 Most Valuable Contracts" list every single year.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Hopefully, we can shut the hell up about never signing guys, blah blah blah.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Dundon so cheap

 

[Canes]

Borg Dundell made Svech happen

 

[MinJaBen]

Canes made $vech happen.

 

[Daeavorn]

Wow what a deal! Nice job Donny boy, this will go a long way.

 

[DougieSmash]

Great contract. Now lock Necas.

Finally great news.

 

[the halleJOKEL]

dundon, cheap, blouses

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Booyah baby!! Now let's get rid of Gards and add Tank

 

[tarheelhockey]

8 years at under $8M has the potential to be an almost Slavin level contract steal.

Worst case, the player he was last year would be getting paid this much 8 years from now.

Also, getting this done way ahead of training camp is a nice win.

Can’t complain about this at all. The front office done good.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Sign me up as liking this. Really shows Necas and Co we are in it to win it long term. Hopefully the others take a slight discount to keep this core together.

 

[A Star is Burns]

So now we can totally follow that other rumor and get Tarasenko. Just gotta strong-arm em into taking Gardiner.
