RNH could have got more for sure, but the term and the overall cap hit favours EDM to win now, and RNH for security. He basically just signed his final pro contract, as this takes him to 36/37 years old.

He is a decent #2 Centre, and you would be hard pressed to find a #2 Centre in the NHL that your only paying 5.125 mill per season.

Hah

"EDM" and "win now"

That's a 404 error if I ever saw one.
