2 more years of Nielsuck after this season
Pretty sure one comes off at end of year. But we aren't going to be competing in three years so either contract is irrelevant.

I'm acutally kinda pissed we did not trade for Trocheck, given I thought he went for a very reasonable price. Especially if we end up winning the #1 pick in the lottery...
You could expose either Abby or Nielsen to the expansion draft in 2021-2022Yeah no buyout, we got a ways to go still. Just let them burn off on their own.
I can see Abby having a resurgence next year and upping his goal production by infinity%.
Absolutely! It's quite realistic to imagine Abby's goal totals surge from this season. Nowhere to go but up!
Le sigh. How depressing there's 3 more years on a contract for a guy who is having his worst season since being a rookie in 2009. Holland's need to lock up a guy like Abby for a lifetime deal was so damn stupid. I know we've beat it to death, but imagine signing a player this off-season to a 3 year deal for $4.25 million per that's coming off a 0 goal, 3 point campaign.
Good. Gravy.
But he's only 33! Aren't NHL players all consistent until about age 40? See Yzerman, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Lidstrom.... Lifetime deals all around!
