Woa... That's a long time for someone who really has only had one good year. Wonder if it's a low AAV which is why they felt comfortable going for such a long term.

Avs are so smart.  Excellent signing.  Took it to the max years to keep the cap low.  We should just blow it up right now and rebuild to compete in a decade. 

For me now, and for the last few months, it has been, "What would Joe Sakic do?"

You and I both know that Franky would never let that fly here. Rebuild=lower ticket prices/lack of fan interest= not as much revenue= NEVER GONNA HAPPEN KAPEESH? 

 

I will cheer you up with a furball pic

Why do I feel like a lot of people would lose their minds if the Canucks signed this deal? It’s Sakic so it’s a smart, excellent signing. Lol

If Nichushkin is getting $6.125M for 8-years, then Horvat is presumably going to at least be in the low $7Ms.  I know they play different positions and have different profiles, but centers are generally even more valuable than wingers.  Drance was predicting $7.5M for Horvat which is looking like a more reasonable prediction.
