Right between 8.7 and 10.6

a fair deal for both sides

[npv708]

9.5...must be a magic number for enigmatic Ruskies.

Biggest set of contracts in NHL history have been signed since this lockout.

The superstars will get their money, always have, always will. It's 3/4 guys that are gonna feel the pinch.

Shero is God! (again)

Obviously both sides wanted this. Nice to not have this linger. It is a reasonable contract. Now it is time for Geno to step up and be a leader.

As long as Letang isn't re- signed, I'm happy

Ok. So against all odds, I think I want TK back, but only if he takes a pretty big paycut.

TK for 1m is worth it, imo.

Hooray!

I was hoping for 8 years, $71 million...so this works just fine for me!

Congrats Geno, happy you're sticking around! )))))))

That was pretty quick haha. I wanted my forum drama of Geno going to Russia!

exactly what the PA said would happen. But of course that was just the stars being selfish.

[llipgh2]

This was fast.

[FreeCandy44]

FIRE SHERO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've always liked GMRS.

It's DB I hate.

To me, it is not not signing Letang.....it is a) He is not going to be affordable and b) Letang can be turned into definite usable parts via trade.

It makes good sense to trade him.

What I love so much about both Sid and Malkin is how easy they're to work with on stuff like this. Props to them, and to Mr. Shero.

[shmenguin]

38 grand a year away from being the highest paid player in the league. i'm surprised he didn't go for a few bucks more

[Stevens25]

I'll take it.
