Wayne Simmonds signs 6 year extension with PHI (around 4 M per )

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie
Wayne Simmonds has agreed to 6 year extension with PHI. Not sure on precise AAV but hearing it's around $4M per year.

Cue the ''traded shortly'' jokes.

Dollar value is fine, IMO, and so is the term considering how young he is. Good job by Flyers!

You know you're in the modern era of hockey when a guy like Wayne Simmonds gets a lucrative 6 year contract. Lol.

Surprised they did it before the CBA is signed, but the deal seems like decent risk/reward.

lol Holmgren is a boss. Trading players that sign long term deals has had little to no effect.

I would've waited for the CBA to pan out before I did this deal, but hey... It's Holmgren.
