This will be 4.7% of the cap in a few years. Good for a 4.

I never knew Bahl was a Punjabi last name.

It's pretty apparent that Flames fans that watch Bahl every night are going to be the only ones who like this dollar number based on what I'm reading. He's under-appreciated by fans who don't watch the Flames because he isn't flashy.

Oh lord, no one tell Harnarayan Singh this information. We're gonna get some crazy pronunciation if he does.

I like Bahl and believe he can be a solid top 4 on a good team. This contract would be good value in that case.

I think that’s the most I’ve ever heard Bahl talk

Great deal, especially with the cap going up.
Edit: I see a limited no trade clause to 8 teams in the last 3 years. That's the one negative thing I would say here. I don't want players like this having no trade clauses because it restricts what you can do for a guy that is a depth player and not one of your franchise players. A small mistake there.

If it was 8 years, the AAV would have been more, not less
Rock solid player with tons of upside - love having him signed long term (expected a shorter deal)

I still remember a few posters here were commenting on how Bahl didn't sound/look happy about being in Calgary and a Flame based off of his pre-season interview when he was injured and hadn't yet gotten on the ice.

Good signing for the Flames, but they should go for a Bahlsy 8 year deal.

According to the Trent Frederic scale, this is an excellent re-signing.
