A steal or huge loss type of deal here. Like McCabe pretty much though

An overpaid defenseman. What's new?

He's a very good defender. This will likely be the best underrated signing of the offseason

Very risky considering he was out for most of the year. Would have gave him a 1 year then extended him mid-way if he played well

Bit steep and surprising, but CHI is notoriously known for overpaying their D-men.

Risky deal for someone who played only 12 games this season. Could pay off though.

Yup. If he's healthy and out of Buffalo, he could excel. Not sure Chicago is the right fit, but he's worth taking a chance on.

Zadorov was better than McCabe. I'd rather trade away De Haan + Stillman just to keep him in Chicago.

Very good defensive d man, but he's coming off a really serious knee injury. Didn't expect him to get this much term.

This year, like every year, lots of UFAs get overpaid

This is true,

McCabe is underrated, solid signing, would have love to have him.

As far as the health, he was just hurt last season, this is not a recurring thing for him

No reason to think he won't stay healthy

The last thing I heard from Buffalo fans was this his injury might have ended his career.

I guess not.

So funny seeing everyone vote no. This guy had positive analytics while being on the SABRES.

One of the best pure DFDs in the league, needed a guy like him since Hjalmarsson left. I like this signing a lot.
