Wow. Pretty low AAV for a guy just one season removed from 59 points

Great deal for the Islanders. He clearly wanted to stay - could have got more on the open market. After the EDM fiasco I think Eberle realized he found a place he was happy and wasn't willing to risk losing it

Repsect for Eberle on this deal! Gives up some value, gains some term, stays with a team he seems to love playing for. EDM fans are still heart broken he's not on McDavid's wing.

Not sure what the year-to-year salary structure is, but he actually took a pay decrease in his AAV. And it's not like he's just some scrub, he could have easily cleared that on the open market.

Lou totally left a severed horse head on Eberle's bed, right?

The only people sad about not having Eberle in edmonton are casual fans or girls that think he is cute. Ebs was butter come playoff time, hes better suited to the east.

Well, if he's so good in the playoffs, Edmonton isn't the place lol.

I think it looks like a good signing. Lehner and Lee still need to be re-signed, but we have the cap space, right?

This means we’ll probably have to make a trade before we pursue Panarin

22m left in cap space after Eberle

7aav to Lee
5aav to Lehner
~2.5aav to Beauvillier

That leaves 7.5 million in cap space. Not nearly enough for Panarin.

So either Lou finds a way to magic Ladd’s contract away, Lou trades Leddy (far more realistic) or the Isles are quiet in Free Agency.

On a final note, R.I.P. Josh Ho-Sang. He is gonezo.

Why wouldn't we re-sign JHS? His QO isn't too high.

Weird. Very reasonable money and term. Eberle could’ve got a lot more on the open market, great signing for the Isles.

Many, many Oilers fans wish that Eberle never left. (Especially because they’d rather him than Sam Gagner)

Ladd hits LTIR for this year..worry about moving him next year. Either Leddy for picks to make a run at a sick FA or for a forward under contract (more likely)

Really? I thought Ladd was expected to be back for the start of the season?

His production went down but he basically got the same money as in 2013.

I think he overpaid here but time will tell.

Unfortunately for EDM in 2017, their first playoffs in 10 years, Eberle wasn't exactly "butter", and nearly invisible (0g, 2a, in 13 games) on the score sheet! On NYI for 2019 he definitely got his playoff groove back (4g, 5a, in 8 games). I'm interested to see Eberle's future playoff stats coming up, but not sure if NYI are going to be consistently in the playoffs in the next 5 years (this contract's term).

Idk why people are expecting the Isles to miss the playoffs next year. It seems like a few people are saying that.

My expectations with NYI are mixed. They seem good to keep themselves in the playoff race, but Lehner had a year that might not be a repeatable performance, and might end up on a new team thanks to Free Agency Market trends for Goalies. Other teams can develop at a faster pace in NYI's division as well, which is why I'm not so sure NYI will be in all 5 playoff appearances in the next 5 years tbh. Maybe 2 or 3 out of those 5 seasons? Hard to say.
