For how many years....
Not sure about a lengthy deal, but that's life in the NHL.

That’s a different-looking PP1 than we’ve had in a long time.
All three forwards are excellent at puck retrieval and working the front of the net. Monahan and Lucic also have good net-front games.
Work it back to either D, have Klingberg on the left side for the one-timer, and bombs away.
There’s a certain simplicity to it that I appreciate.
Plus, I know we wouldn’t be signing him for his defensive acumen, but having another elite-skating D to throw on the ice against McDavid isn’t the worst idea.
They’ve currently got three guys signed past the next two years - the cap situation is actually pretty flexible sans Gaudreau.
