That's such a deal, I can't believe either side wasn't firm on 8yrs

Bouch bomb!!! He's twice the player Ekblad is, this is great!

$4.4M more per year than Ekblad at half the term.

4 years might be an indication that McDavid will also be signing a shorter extension, and if they can't win the Cup in that time, they'll be jumping ship.

Who would win in a staring contest between Bouchard and Andersson?

brutal deal. Couldn't even lower the AAV to single digits when you go 4 instead of 8 years? Yikes.
almost 20m for Nurse/Bouchard. Brutal.

They have one guy who can play defense, Ekholm, and he is 36 with a bad back and hips. There D payroll as right now is over $33M and is old as hell. There is a chance they will decline as a team faster than Vegas.
They really need to dump Nurse as Bouchard isn't going anywhere.

Doesn't seem like too bad a deal for the Oilers tbh.

So many LOLs with this signing. Getting neither term nor value for him is hilarious.
Also, does this mean that if he had signed for 8 years it would've been at an AAV of $12 million or something? Insanity...

Accounting for their buyouts and such, they are 2 million over the cap now right?

This is a horrible contract. He is so awful defensively and the only reason he puts up massive numbers is because of 97 and 29. End of the day, great news for Flames fans.

He's awful in his own zone and his points are inflated playing with McDavid.
This contract is bad as it isn't long enough to play into a good contract.
Have to think he wanted $12 mil for 8 years, which is worse IMO
