Panthers sign Demers (5 yrs, 4.5 mil AAV)
Chris Johnston @reporterchris
Jason Demers agrees to $22.5M, five-year deal with #FlaPanthers, @Sportsnet has learned: http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/s...lion-contract/

That's not a terrible deal IMO. $4.5 is a decent cap hit for a top 4 Dman and he's not old either so 5 year term is OK too.

Intersting who they leave unprotected next year; Yandle, Ekblad and Demers?
Would leave Pysyk and Petrovic exposed.

Hey according to Edmonton media... they didn't lose out, they are waiting for Tyson Barrie to shake loose and fall into their laps.

This one is a surprise. I thought Edmonton would have offered more $$$ and term to him.

if they hadn't made that Hall trade and signed Demers instead (who they hosted together with Lucic a few days ago IIRC):
Hall and Demers for a combined 10.5m
vs
Lucic and Larsson for a combined 10.175m
well ...

They probably did, but Demers knows the blackhole that is Edmonton's defensive game.

This may lead to Russell being snapped up quickly - helps to set his value

It's ok Chia, you still have time to get a 6 million AAV offer out the door to Dan Boyle.

This is actually not terrible. He'll be better than Mitchell.

Russell hasn't done anything to deserve this. I hope he finds a good deal somewhere else.
