Confirmed Signing with Link: [WSH] Nick Jensen signs extension with the Capitals (4 years, $2.5M AAV)

[780il]

This makes the deal look not so bad anymore

 

[theVladiator]

Wow, nice deal by the Caps.

 

[wej20]

It’s not even that bad of a contract to Be honest. Seems like a low risk high reward for Capitals.

Worst case he's an expensive #6/#7.He's not Jack Johnson, that's always a plus.

 

[ShelbyZ]

makes the deal very good for the caps. Jensen at 2.5 is really good. Still like the deal for wings as it allows space for Cholo and Hronek, plus Bowey now

The deal essentially made room for Bowey, but not the other two...

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Makes sense why they paid the price that they did. Not a rental trade.

 

[ottawa]

I was saying thats an okay deal!

Thanks, I'm sure the Capitals brass will be happy they have your approval.

It’s only 2.5 man. They can move that contract easily to anyone with a minor plus if it goes bad.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Wow that isn't that bad of a deal

I'll still take our 2nd any day of the week

 

[WingsMJN2965]

If he continues playing the way he was for Detroit, that's a great deal for the Caps.

damn u sound so salty

 

[sens13]

seems cheap.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

this is a good deal

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

Wow, nice deal by the Caps.

He hasn't even skated with them yet though, isn't it a bit soon to make a judgement?

Sure it sounds like an okay deal but see how he adjusts first

Yah it’s only 2.5. Not bad at all. And if things don’t work out? That contract can easily be moved with a small add. I really like this contract and what the Capitals are doing.

I have never understood why teams sign players to an extension before even playing a single game with them after being acquired.

Why not play him for 20 games see how he fits and then decide if you want to sign him for 4 years?

 

[BigTruzz]

Really good deal for the caps.

 

[NyIander]

Caps win this trade after that extension.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Well that’s depressing I wanted Dallas to sign him in the offseason. He could be a good number #4, so he will look stellar on the third pairing.

 

[philip]

Caps win this trade after that extension.

Unless he reverts to the form that nearly made him a life AHL journeyman and Caps just paid 10mil for him

By that logic teams should never sign free agents

Remember when Bryan Murray did it with Bob Essensa....

Any indicators at all that's going to happen? He's coming off two solid seasons playing for a bottom dweller and now he gets to play with one of the best teams in the league.

 

[Voodoo Glow Skulls]

That was quick. Good deal for the Caps and Jensen.

Gotta feeling Cap fans will like him.

Just would have made more sense to take the car for a test drive before you hand the guy your money
