Corey, Ryan, you're both next!

That's a fine price for him. Hopefully Perry and Getzlaf are next. Please Perry, stay please please please... Please. STAY!

That could end up being one of the better contracts in the NHL, when Fowler really hits his stride.

If it hadn't been for the lockout, I'm absolutely certain we would have had to go over 5. Cam was looking primed for a breakout.

Right. This signing only happens at this point, and at this price, because of the lockout. People will make comparisons to Carlson's contract, but there are factors to consider: First, Carlson is 22, and was a 2008 pick. He has two years of development on Fowler. Second, Carlson's contract begins this season. Fowler still has one more year on his ELC, which also means he had one more year to increase his value.
Subban falls into the same category that Carlson does. He's an older prospect, further along in his development, who is leaving his ELC years.

Wow! I'm really happy with this deal. Always nice to lock up young, offensively gifted dmen. Cam is such an important piece.

Great news. Cam has a bright future, and I'm glad to see him stay for a few more years.

You could thank Fowler and his agent instead, if that feels better.

Awesome deal, Fowler is probably worth close to that already. Defensemen with his kind of upside that have shown so much potential at 20 are very rare. I wish we could have gotten Getz and Perry signed too.

I popped in Game 1 of the Ottawa-Anaheim series a few hours ago. I'm up to Game 4.

A mixture of boredom from the lockout and for fun.

I assumed DVM was driving you to drink.
