I cant start a new thread, so will post here. GMJR said earlier today that if everything goes well, Pens will have new deal with Horni tomorrow.
"Over my career, I've done very few contracts in the middle of the year. I think it says a lot about what Patric Horqvist means to us to do this now... If everything goes well, the deal should be done tomorrow."
Hornqvist extension in PIT is expected to be for five years with an AAV of $5.3M

If this is the term, it will be 1M raise, as his cap hit now is 4.25M. SOme folks were speculating that he could get even 6M a year if he hits UFA, so it would be good deal for both parties.
