Probably similar players but Coleman has produced without stars and Hyman hasn't.

Nope, you've reminded us.

Not much different, honestly. It's one year shorter and a bit cheaper, so that's nice, but in terms of player quality Hyman is probably a bit better overall. Certainly more offensive contributions to be expected there. And Hyman has knee injury history.
I don't love either deal for the long term, but prefer this one somewhat.

Holland overpays for Hyman.

Pretty much the story for any 1st or 2nd day UFA signing.
Hopefully you get three above average years, an average year, a just below average year and only one stinker.
But teams are all betting on first half of contracts around the league.
At least it's not 8 years and $6M
|
When you play the UFA market, you need to be prepared to plug your nose in the later half of any longer term contract.
Calgary is rebuilding in 3 years likely anyway, it won't matter.

One year too long for me, but other than that I’m really happy about this deal. Coleman is a stud

Same age. Hyman is injury prone. Hyman probably has more offense, Coleman a little better defensively. Both are physical but Coleman will drop the gloves.

Not sure its eichel, but I think the shake up is on. Wouldn't be surprised to see someone big shipped out...

This is a bad contract.

Better than I expected; but probably 2 years too long.

Flames have been sniffing around Coleman for at least 3 years from my recollection as well.
