Yurei Slavkowski has signed an eight-year contract extension with the Montreal Canadiens, carrying an average of $7.6 million. Guys, let's break this down. What do we think of Yurei Slavkowski being a Hab long term?
He had 20 goals, which is good. 30 assists, which is good. 50 points in 82 games, which is good. Also, it's a skill to hit 82 games. This is a player who got better as the season went and a forward with his skill set, his tenacity, he's low-key, really mean, and his size for 7.6 million, that's a difficult, difficult player to find.
Montreal, I want you to look at this thing and say, We got the deal of a century, because this thing reminds me, and I'm not saying he is this player, but this reminds me of Nathan McKinnon signing for $6.3 million for seven years when he did way back when he was a young.
