Confirmed Signing with Link: [OTT] Mike Hoffman (4 years, $5.1875M AAV)

Very nice contract.

I think Ottawa could be back in the playoff picture next season.
 
Senators lock up Mike Hoffman with 4-year, $20.75M deal

The Ottawa Senators have avoided arbitration with forward Mike Hoffman, signing the 26-year-old sniper to a four-year, $20.75-million contract.

Very honest deal without any bonuses and front-loading BS. 1 RFA year for cheap and 3 UFA years close to the market value.
 
Would have loved to have Hoffman...but this is awesome for the Senators.
 
But...but...people said we didn't have the money to sign him, what gives? :scared:

Eugene will be spending more than he's comfortable with for the next couple of years. It's not that they didn't have the money, it's that the owner realizes he can't over reach a certain budget for a long period of time.

Don't be naive, this is a small market team that has to make tough choices when it comes to spending money. This was the right choice though and I'm glad the sens didn't have to lose a really solid goal scorer because of shallow pockets.

I'm not a fan of the team but I really hope they get this arena downtown all figured out sooner than later. It would be nice to see a really competitive Ottawa team in the league again.
