Confirmed Signing with Link: [FLA] F Carter Verhaeghe signs extension with the Panthers (8 years, $7M AAV)

[Our Lady Peace]

Another Florida player takes below-UFA value to go with Forsling and Reinhart. That's what is going to power Florida's contention window for some time to come.

Take notes, Chucky

They continue to benefit from the no income tax in Florids. Cant blame them.

You are aware that the majority of income taxes in the United States are federal, yes? The lack of state income tax is a very marginal benefit.

Weather, lifestyle, and winning are significantly bigger factors.

BS.

Same happened when Chicago Bulls dominated. When a team is winning, players want to stay. It wouldn't have been possible 10 years ago. Other reason is that it's fun to live in Florida. People aren't harassing players like they do in Canada. One can have life outside the rink and play golf or go boating.

More PPG in the playoffs then anyone on the Leafs since he became a Panther.

Nylander 11.5M

LOL

He could have gotten a little more over a shorter term. The 8years brought it down. Even then you'd figure 8m wouldn't have been unrealistic.

Does this impact Bennett's chances at re-signing?

Probably helps. Cats fans expected 8 per.

Your forward signs an 8 year extension and yet all you can think about is Toronto

LOL

Yes

Bargain

I thought he was going to get at least 8. I was guessing around 8.375ish to reinharts 8.625. Heard they were close to an extension when Reinhart signed his and then nothing happened so I wasn’t sure if he was going to try for more in free agency. The full 8 and only 7 even? Love it! Wow

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Good signing. I think he scores 50 goals this year if he stays on the top line.

[KrisLetAngry]

Good contract.

Once you become good No tax states have a major advantage.

I am curious what Sam Bennet signs for.
5.5 x 7?

Toronto is the team that drafted him, so at least it’s directly relevant.

 

[Rude Dog]

He is 29, he will be 30 when his next contract start

Great deal for Carter. Most forwards hit their peak years around 26. The term should be 3 years shorter for this to be a great deal for Fla

Improves I think.

With the cap going up another 4M, if Ekblad takes less both can fit.


7M a year. Guy is our very own Justin Williams
