McKenzie indicates both signs aim at extension talks occurring in the summer after next season:

I wasn't a huge fan of the R. Andersson deal.. but that one is much better than this. Nurse is a decent second pairing guy?

If my math is right, it's interesting (odd) that this buys no UFA years and leaves no RFA years either.
I can't recall any recent midseason multiyear extensions like that being signed in the cap era. Teams typically want one or the other, especially with an early extension like this.

I like it.
He wants to be an Oiler. Very good friends with Mcdavid. Number isn’t close to starting with an 8.
Will negotiate an extension next season.

So he signed a 2-yr for $3.2M/yr for the 2018-19 and 2019-20, and signs another 2-yr for $5.6M/yr until 2021.
Sounds to me like another bridge deal (even though he gets to UFA). Edmonton not willing to commit long term at a dollar value that Nurse wants.
$3.2M/year for Kassian
$5.6M/year for Nurse
So $8.8M/year for next year spent by the Oilers in the past month, with the biggest contracts of Sam Gagner ($3.15M), Mike Smith ($2M) coming off the books.
I don't see any big UFA signings coming this summer for the Oilers, so I guess it's another year of improvement from within.

I love it. Nurse is talented but also dumber than a bag of hair.

This takes him pretty much out of town as this takes him to a UFA contract. He's not going to show this team any loyalty, and the only way the Oilers get him as a UFA is a deal that he can't say no to,
There will be no free agent signings this year.
this contract takes them to 68 million dollars in place for next year with 13 players signed. They will need 4 forwards 3 defensemen and a goalie.
If the cap goes up by 2 million dollars to lets say 83 million, that's 15 million left for 8 players.
They're boned.

Imagine if she marries him and shes actually a Nurse. Her nametag would be great.

Or this means he can pretty much blackmail the Oilers at the end of year one of the contract to get the hell out of Oilerville.
If he liked McDavid and Leon so much he would have sold some years of UFA.

I knew a short term deal around 6M was coming when the Edmonton media started reporting 8M ask...thought they would get more than 2 though

This worked out really when when they did it last time. For Petry, that is, that it worked out well, because he got out of Edmonton.

Could be I guess. I mean Mackenzie called this to help keep the cap down then can sign a long term deal next year. But CC says he’s screwing them.
I guess we’ll see who’s right.

If I’m his agent I’m advising him to test free agency for the next contract unless the Oilers offer a significant overpay, because he’ll get overpaid as a UFA

Wants to be an Oiler. Friends with McDavid (who isn't). Will sign an 8 year 9.5 million extension after the end of next season. McDavid gets traded. Doesn't want to be an Oiler. Sulks for 8 years on the 2nd pairing.
Perfect.
