If he is supposed to be a great offensive defenseman, I haven't seen it? Whats his goal total - 3? And he certainly isn't a stout defensive d-man.
This might mean they are trading Jensen though. They wanted to lock up Sandin to some term before they move Jensen.

Nuts...maybe. It is HIGH for him for sure right now. But he's 23, so they kinda roll the dice a little. If he ends up being decent, its not a bad salary when he's 27, 28, etc and is got some more experience.
I honestly think he's having an off year and will be better offensively. His D is not terrible, but yeah his size ain't great.
GMBM is spending some of that Manth & Kuzy money I think. I think Caps are absolutely done with Kuzy. Carbs prolly just said fuck him...he's a cancer & I'd rather train some rookies.
I will be shocked if we see Kuzy in a Caps uniform next season
Beaglefan2:
There is no way were going to, or should, resign Mantha and it will be interesting to see what he gets. If he shows well in the playoffs, I bet he gets another payday - maybe 4.5 to 5.0 on a 3 year deal. I have zero interest in him.
I just thought they would get a little more, but Tarasenko just got traded for a 3rd and 4th, so maybe they did allright.

Oh and Sandin is a Left D, which the Caps are surely short on. Not that that is a reason to sign a guy for 5 years, but apparently they like him and you know Edmunson is gone next year.
D men are tough to find

They say the Panthers are the best team in the NHL. Check out their D salaries. 1 guy (Ekblad) makes over 3.5m a year.
