The contracts the oilers and nucks gave out were far worse than the flames because the players now have to play for the oilers or nucks... The DE signing really isn't that bad at all, they said hey signed him for more than just his play on the ice, he's a good player and a good person. They may have over paid him but if they really wanted to, they could send him down and not think twice about it. People are talking about a 2 year deal of 2.9 mil per year being the worst??? It's not that much money(relative to what players make) and it's not that long in term.
