Harley and the Dallas Stars agree to a deal just about at projection. A fair #MaxTerm deal, yet most long term deals for stars his age are going to age very well for the team in this cap climate. #NHL #TexasHockey

Igor Shesterkin is considered one of the better goalies in the #NHL. But did the New York Rangers make the necessary moves in front of him to return to the playoffs this season? #NYR @maxtermpod.bsky.social

Connor McDavid comes in at a shorter term and lower AAV than projected. He will cash in again soon, leading to lower AAV. But below Draisaitl!? Leaves Oilers space for other moves! #NHL #LetsGoOilers

Jake Walman gets 7x7 from the Oilers, an increase in term and AAV over projected. Top4 d-man locked in long term. Solid deal for both siders, increased AAV makes since with the increased term. #NHL #LetsGoOilers

Luke Evangelista finally gets his contract done with #Smashville. Absolutely no reason for negotiations to have dragged out for this long with it coming in just a touch above projection. #NHL

Jackson LaCombe gets PAID by the Anaheim Ducks. #MaxTerm with more UFA years bought gets him to $9M AAV. He’s their #1 and if he can repeat last season or even improve, this could age well for the Ducks! #NHL #FlyTogether
