Wonder if the Leafs have a real shot at Marchand now.

That's a pretty decent priced Stanley Cup winner top pairing with Forsling making 5.75 and Ekblad 6.1.

That's a great deal for Florida. Winning works it's magic again.

Look at that, another fine example of a discount contract. What a great deal for Florida.

What a deal.
Unbelievable that even after the cap going up, winning a couple of cups, multiple superstars and stars needing new contracts, their highest paid player (tied with Barkov) is STILL Bobrovsky from like ages ago.
Wild.

I don’t even think it’s a money thing, it’s a legacy thing.
Before today, i doubt Ekblad would get his # retired by Florida, he’s been a good soldier but ultimately not the guy to bring them glory. Now though? He’ll be a career panther and was there for the good old days. This deal guaranteed he’ll be in the rafters.

Ekblad and Forsling combined could potentially make less than Bouchard

No, once a player is a UFA, he can only sign a max 7-year deal even with his old team. Once midnight tonight hits, he wouldn't have been able to sign an 8-year with Florida either.

Unless there are significant CBA changes, no one really ever faces consequences for term, so this has gotta be one of the best bargain contracts in the league. Legit top pairing defenseman for pretty much what we paid Bahl
