That's oddly cheap for the term but I guess it only eats 1 ufa year?

That's an ill advised contract.

Ellis. It's a pretty low cap hit for a top-4 defenceman, and it buys a year of UFA status. Teams go crazy on July 1st for right shooting defencemen who can put up points. He's wasting a pretty high earning year for himself.

Is he a legit top 4 guy though? I feel like Nashville didn't really think he was and he's looking more like a PP specialist

I feel like Nashville didn't really think he was and he's looking more like a PP specialist his even strength adv stats suggest he's at least competent but i haven't watched nashville play in like two years to comment beyond that. a right shooting power play specialist is worth more than $2.5m though if he's good at it.

He was a little rough when he first came into the league but my amateur eyes thought he looked pretty good last year.
