That was a tough contract from the day it was signed - he put up 27 points in 79 games before this contract even came into effect - but they won the cup that season so hard to not re-sign your captain.
24 combined years at a cap hit of $22 million dollars per year remaining for Carter, Quick, Gaborik, & Brown. All 4 players on the wrong side of 30.
Mortgaged the future for their 2 cups - but going to be tough to get out from under some of these contracts.
