It is confirmed $1.5 million a season. Good deal for us!
Glad to see Watson doing a lot better as well after his last season struggles. He earned this contract for sure!
Glad to have him locked up!

Really solid deal.

Solid deal. Weird announcement timing. Good for him.

It was probably contingent on him having a goal and assist so when he got it became official

 

[LCPreds]

Great arena cheer too.

Main boards are already firing up the "all domestic violence is equal and nobody deserves a second chance" opinions.

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

Nice. He brings an element that is increasingly hard to find in the modern NHL, and certainly unique in our lineup. I honestly think he could have gotten more than this with a good season. Very happy to have him back for 3 more years!

Which is why they did it when they did

Bunch of effing mouth breathers out there that don't deserve oxygen. Hell, that's where the idiot Preds fans that post here spend most of their time.

Just stay away.

Well deserved. He does the stuff on the ice not a lot of other players like to do.

And he has, and continues to, work really hard to turn his life around.

Glad for him. One of my favorite preds.

With Josi and Watson now signed the contract watch focuses on Smith and Granlund. Five slots to fill with about $12 mil in cap space to it if there isn't an increase in the upper limit.

 

[Scoresberg]

Good for him, good deal for a 4th liner.

Amazing that so many that didn't vilify him right away and were bashed for it turned out to be right....

I’m very happy they’re still sober. I’m gratified that the Preds stood by him and now have given him that new deal. This is a lifetime fight and they can’t relax their resolve. Keep on supporting them.
