Either way, it happens frequently.
Now Ottawa is stuck with a guy from his 21st birthday through his 29th birthday at 8.3 million who looks like he will be a 90+ point guy for the duration of that contract. The Flames signed a 32 year old for 7 million a year on a contract that takes him through his 39th birthday who will likely be a 60-65 point guy for the first 3 years of the contract. Two different approaches.

Frequently? Like, less than 5% of ELC’s? So strange it’s only the Flames that are this stupid.
