I'm surprised at the term for Semin. After 30 games, Canes feel he has proven himself to give him a long-ish contract

Semin probably used Getzlaf /Perry contract as a comparison...

Not surprised that he gets 7 mil if they get 8.6

In a real world I was thinking more like 5.5-6m/yr for a shorter term like 3 yrs... but Semin has played pretty well this year and is known to be a sick sniper.. heh just as long as he doesn't slack off... high risk high reward I guess

Exactly....Most great NHL players get contracts that are high risk/high reward....Crosby's huge contract was a HUUUUUGE risk....That contract after people close to the situation suggesting that he might never play again....and who knows, even now maybe he's one big hit from being done....

Well its one thing when you are forced to retire due to injury, contracts especially one as big as Crosby's are insured so the risk to the team is minimal

But you can't insure a contract for under performance and general suckiness. 7M/yr for 2-3 years I could see, 5 years... who knows if he'll even be in the league in 5 years

russians should be restricted to 3 year contracts or less so they continue to play at a high level

Its crazy how the Blackhawks, Kings, Bruins, and Penguins could fit Iginla under the cap given how crazy good they are this season.

Semins nowhere on the same level as Perry/Getzlaf.

He got overpaid

He definitely cashed in for sure lol

Or maybe I'm too used to seeing MG and Gilman signing the team to cheap contracts

Speaking of Crosby...

What happened to Ovechkin? Guy used to put up points like Crosby...
He's definitely no longer a 9.5mil player... and how many years is left in his contract?...
