Just going to post this. Wow. And I thought he was underappreciated. Laughing

Obviously it's a bit of a message signing to Nashville fans and, well, the league. The Preds are back in business.

My stumping for ex-Blades must be paying off for them. I expect a cut of Mike Green's massive contract this summer.

That's some fucking paper. Erat got money, money he got.

At least now they won't have to keep Steve Sullivan on the active roster just so they can hit the cap floor. Laughing

Nashville will always be small market, but if the local owners are dedicated, they can attract a strong enough following to at least keep them afloat and not hemorrhaging money. If the team only loses a million or two a season, it's worth it for the local owners to stay in it because of the obvious benefits team + land + arena can bring.

Erat, 26, scored a career high 26 seasons this past season and tied a personal best with 57 points. The Predators selected Erat
with the 191st overall pick in the 1999 Entry Draft.

That is very impressive, I must say.

It's funny, because a 7 year contract doesn't seem that long anymore.

Deal rejected by the league. They'll rework the payments and try again. WTF w/NMC? GM's are crazy.

Deal is now approved after a small tweak.

Seriously though...no-movement clause?
