UFA signings are always a little longer and a little more expensive than you would like. That is the price you pay for a free asset.
If Markstrom sucks in the last year or two of the contract, so be it. We have added a legit #1 to the lineup. That immediately puts us into the upper tier in the North Div (this year) and the Pacific.
To anyone who thinks the price was too high, I say: if you won't pay that price for a player of Markstrom's caliber, you will never build a contender.
