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.

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

The no income tax stuff means nothing for this type of stuff unless you have a sustained winner. Florida now has that. Teams like Nashville and Seattle still overpay for UFAs despite no income tax because they are not as good.

7M will be the going rate for 3rd liners by the end of this deal
I mean he'll be 38 by then.
Guessing they keep the core for 4-5 years and then blow it up

May suck in year 5+ but I don't care. This group delivered on a championship and I'll gladly see them take below market deals to keep the window open in the short term

For some reason, I thought he already signed last summer. I don’t know why but maybe it was a rumour back then for around 6 million
Good deal, it’ll suck when they probably are done contending

Essentially with the tax free aspect he took probably a mil less.

Getting 8 years beginning next season is Ages 30-37. If he has a big year, maybe someone offers that but the back half of the contract you figure is going to hurt making it likely that he probably wasn't going to get a better value for that amount of time.
It really is nice having the best GM in the league and having guys buy in.
