I think that was when Carolina signed him to an offer sheet. And it had some kind of 25M bonus tied to it.

Just googled

Hurricanes' offer gives Fedorov this year a $14 million signing bonus, $2 million in salary and a $12 million bonus if the teams he is on makes the Conference finals

Apparently, the Wings made the Conference finals that year

I had a secret desire to see the Flyers get Hemsky and play him with B Schenn and Simmonds. When healthy he would have been a great possession winger for B Schenn.

Would it though?

I just hate the idea of FA, because it's basically imminent that teams hilariously overpay for players.

Some are worth it.

Most are not.
