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

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.
