I like Jake Walman, but he is a player I would have preferred be 4 years. $7M feels high, but with the rising cap I think that is about standard. Doesn't feel like there is any discount here.


I think with the cap being $113M 2 years into his new contract, that 7M might eventually be value.. but I guess we'll see.. the 7 years could be a benefit or a curse to the Oilers.. he's 1 year younger (29) than Nurse .. and he's a decent top 4 right now.. which in this current market seems to get fairly large contracts.. I think Bowman is trying to build a stable foundation for the roster for the next few years so there will not be too many contract balls in the air at any one season.. something to sell to McDavid.

McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)
