Poile always signs these long term deals, and they always turn out great. Whether it be Järnkrok (2 million till 2022), Josi (4 million till 2020), Arvidsson (4.25 million till 2023), Forsberg (6 million till 2022), or Ekholm (3.75 till 2022), they're all great contracts.
There's inherent risk in long term deals, but Poile is great at signing these types of contracts.
Basically all of these deals were signed while the player was between 22 and 26 years old.
