Love it. Now we can all stop worrying about it.

Let’s get Nikishin in here and call it a summer.

Yep, good to get this locked in. And very glad it didn't reach arbitration.

Oh, bummer.

That means Steen hates Dvorsky.

I predicted 5 x 6.25. Guess getting that sixth year pushed the AAV up. I still think it’s a bit rich for what he’s done but should age well.

Totally agree......paid a little extra for the 6th year. I think he is going to do well in St. Louis, and the contract will look better each year that goes by.

Seems expensive, I was thinking 4mil per year.
That just seems really expensive for a guy that’s kinda milk toast with smart hockey sense.

6 is the new 4, especially this year. I would have been surprised if this got below 6.

I think they were likely asking for 7/$49mil so I think this is a win for the Blues. He’s a good player, goes hard to the net and has great wheels. Such a great overall deal for the Blues.

Good signing. Lets pass on Nikishin.
6 million bucks for (hopefully) 50 points ish?
Crazy salaries.
