Not bad. maybe about 300 grand too high a cap hit but that's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. That's half a Devin Setoguchi.

A little bit high imo, but Bouma seems like a great teammate and gives everything for this team. Glad we got him signed.

AAV is a little high, but better than a 2.0 single year contract and then negotiating off of that next summer.

A little bit more than I expected, but it won't throw the cap out of whack.

Would have liked to see 2M AAV over the 3 years but meh, close enough.

200k a year more than I initially thought. Perfectly happy with this outcome.

it's more than I thought he'd get but Hamilton got less than I thought he'd get. This isn't too bad at all.

Was just going to mention this.
They bought 1 year of UFA for $2.3MM.
Take that away and the 2 year RFA money is $2.15MM. Pretty reasonable.

Yep, I agree with the general sentiment. $2.2 is a little high but for 3 years I'm ok with it.VIDEO

Fair enough. Isn't that slightly below league average these days?
