A declining Lucic for seven years is a great deal....for Lucic. That deal for the boneheads up North doesn't frighten me at all. How long has it been since Lucic has been an impact player? If he wasn't going to play with McDavid, I'd expect almost no impact. He'll get points but, for me, the clock is ticking for at what point he becomes a slow boat-anchor.

Backes for 1 year is a massive surprise.

I'd like Okposo. I don't want to spend a lot of money. We aren't getting Okposo...

Keep these contracts coming! It's really nice to see the OP light up like it is right now.

It's also been reported that he doesn't want to play in Canada. Yet he'll likely go to Buffalo, which is pretty much Canada.

To reiterate, Backes to BOS but no terms yet. J-M Liles is going back to BOS on a one year deal.

Almost all these big signings look bad after a few years. Ericsson, Nielsen, Ladd, Lucic. 3-5 years fine. 6-7 years is too much.

Edit: add Okposo and Backes to that list.

Damn. I was kind of hoping the Flames could sign Marchessault.

I hope Treliving stays out of this gong show. These contracts outside of Perron are ridiculous.

Oilers and Canucks will both be better next year after today's signs, but I'm not sure they be that much better, and I'm really glad the Flames aren't being strapped with those terms and costs.

Hopefully if we make any adds they are more reasonable and bank on our young core to improve and deliver better results.

Both of those smaller Florida signings look pretty good

Lucic flat out decided to sign 7 years with Edmonton to play with McDavid. He's going to regret that...
