Nice write up Ben.

Nelson’s deal is a great contract for both player and team.

Thank you and agreed!

Comparing it to Turris' contract at $6mil is comical; I am not sure what Nashville was thinking! Also can't believe the Pens signed Hornqvist???(sp) to a 5 year deal when he was 31... he's still got a few years left for that to bite them hard!

In fairness, Turris got that contract after he was traded to Nashville & was having a solid productive season in OTT. But agree it's 1 horrible deal.

Lou is the worst GM in the NHL - James Tanner

Schmaltz could be a 90+ point player - James Tanner

In theory, Nelson could be a 90 point player with Kucherov and Hall as his wings...
