According to Botchford he got a NYC:

@botchford: Alex Edler is extended, 6 years, $30 million. No concerns about the back flare up this fall

@taj1944: @botchford Any word if it has a NTC?

@botchford: @taj1944 ya, same as the others

Stupid autocorrect - who gets a New York City on a contract?

I think players should only be able to sign 1 year contracts, every year. That would make for some seriously f'ed up lineups. You could go from last to first and back to last in three years.

That would suck for teams that actually have good GM's and draft/scout/develop and trade well. I'm sure Leafs fans would love it though.

Oh yeah, no drafting, no minor league affiliates. Total free for all, no salary cap...

EDIT - could you imagine what the Rangers would spend?

I think of myself more as one of those handsome "islanders" that would make their way over now and again and demand a sacrifice.

I don't buy it, I'm thinking Burke's more of a Jody Vance kind of a guy.

Thank god, because I'd take Edler over Ehrhoff for sure, and I think Garrison is going to be pretty damn solid as well. Our top PP unit looks great with those two and their slap shots at the points for the next few years. Breaking the rule to go 400k more for Edler is worth it IMO. I think Gillis knew that all along.
- Nucker101


He was definitely worth it. Looking forward to what MG does next. We might not always agree with his outcomes, but he always addresses holes in the lineup. He got booth, he got Ballard, he got garrison. Who else does fla have ?

Guessing PK Subban's reps aren't all that happy with Edler deal. Going to be tough to pry 6-mil per now. #canucks #Habs

He makes a good point, there's no way Subban deserves more than Edler.

- Nucker101


Subban deserves 6m per just for his clobbering hit on Marchand alone. I hate that pr!ck.
