I'll be pumped with anything under 6 years and under $5.5m per year. This was a necessity given how solid and underrated he is.

I love how we don't even get the length of the contract.

Nice! Greene is the man!

Hopefully the contract is a fair deal for both sides.

Most important player on the team besides Schneider. Others come very close, but this guy IS the defense for the next few years while the kids transition and learn. Character, talent, speed and skill. Amazing news.

there is nothing that can be stupid about re-signing your unarguably best defenseman, and top 5 player.

I liked the signing. Greene is a good D Man.

Excellent off-season.

Yes there can. If they signed him to an 8 year deal with a $6 million cap hit, I would consider that stupid. He's a very good player, but he's 31, he's not super productive, and he's on the smaller side.

Apparently the deal came together pretty quickly, so I'm hoping that means it'll be a reasonable contract, both term-wise and cap hit.

he's not super productive? He's a defenseman, our best and most responsible defenseman in every zone of the ice, that's a young 31. I wouldn't cry if he had a 6mil cap hit that took him to 39. Obviously we don't want that, but the guy doesn't play an overly physical game that will wear on him. He's smart, well positioned, good hands and legs and hockey sense. His value to this team and defense soon filled with kids, can not be overlooked.

you should've pushed for BOTH members of our top pairing..

honestly a trade for Greene would do your D wonders.... but we need Mr. Greene's services as well

Apparently Greene just got married that's why this didn't happen earlier but I also hope it doesn't mean Lou gave him extra dollars as a wedding present anything under five would be dreaming I wouldn't want anything over 6 for him I don't care what you can say about him he should get 5-6 no more no less
