The people freaking out can now breathe again that he signed the contract everyone knew he was going to sign months ago.

Exactly what he deserves. Now, for the love of god, please earn a WHOLE LOT MORE for your next contract.

Can't be a good sign that he only got 2.3M. No team in the league though he was worth an offer sheet for significantly more?

Offer sheets are extremely rare. We wouldn't even know if he was offered one or not. He doesn't have to sign the offer.

I was being a bit facetious, but coming in under is pretty big.
It allows us to allocate all the bonuses for this year to this year's cap and still have enough for a callup. That could be pretty big for next year when we will have a few big contracts to possibly consider. Kakko, Lindgren, Schneider.
I’m very happy with this deal but, sadly, it’s also somewhat of a “prove it” deal. When this one’s done he’ll have 5 seasons under his belt. If his agent is worth a damn they’re looking at Hughes and Stutzle and myriad other second contracts around the league and hopefully understanding WHY they aren’t able to cash in on that level and utilizing that as reason for a hard-working offseason and hungry year. Best thing in the world for us is if Laf comes to camp and the only thing on his mind is earning an 8x8 extension next.

Because nowadays we can't trust our own eyes here are the numbers from the all mighty Jfresh on X. Looks solid.

I just hope that he comes to camp in the best shape of his life with an attitude to prove the doubters wrong.
Am I wrong, or does every chart show regression from his sophomore year?

Rangers are currently $46,583 over the cap, but that's for a 23 man roster. If we send down Belzile and Mackey, we'll have $1,503,417 in cap space.
Based off recent softball pics uploaded, he looks like he’s still in “loves Cinnabon” shape.

I'm surprised he's even able to sign the contract with how jacked he looks in the pics people have been posting.
