and how many of those are currently considered Good Contracts

they are considered "what it costs for a #1 D"

(all of them are fine contracts, because that is what it costs to get a #1D, are you stupid?)

So what's the right value for #1d, 9m? Could ekblad get 10 ok his next contract due to his age? I know hedman is excellent but so are oel, karlsson, doughty, letang, Keith, ekblad etc

Ekblad just signed a deal that was 4RFA 4UFA for 7.5 million.

Doughty signed years ago for 7 million.

Keith signed a lifetime contract 6 years ago that still has him at almost 6 AAV

OEL and Karlsson both signed sweetheart deals to get them out of RFA status. I think everyone agrees they are good deals. They also eat up RFA years and only 1 UFA year. Ekblad's next deal will probably be well over 10, but that's 8 years away.

Victor Hedman at under 8 a year for his UFA years, before he gets old, is a great deal. He's the best player on a really good team.

The Radulov signing is good, it's just strange because of what they did with Subban.

Montreal is a better team today than they were yesterday.

But they didn't qualify him at $900k or whatever he was due just to avoid giving him the option to go to arbitration?

Bergevin isn't going to run his signing out on a rail.

If Radulov goes, and he well might, it's going to be quiet with next to no emphasis on his character.

e: It's just not working out, the transition back to NA isn't working, etc etc. There were no problems with his character at all, because that would imply we screwed up on character judgement, which as you know is more important than talent assessment.

I get being suspicious of it if you're a Habs fan, but in a vacuum it's a really good signing.

Term and not cash was always my concern with Holland's deal and Nielsen is signed forever. Guh. At least he'll age gracefully and make up part of a $15m third line for Detroit, I guess.

Agreed, and on TSN just now the concerns over Subban were "he donated to charity but his teammates didn't nominate him for the foundation award" and "didn't sulk enough after losses".

It just doesn't make sense within the context of "character issues" being a big part of why Subban left.
