The Ducks announced Friday they have re-signed Getzlaf to an eight-year contract extension that will carry him through the 2020-21 season. The team did not disclose the terms of the contract, but multiple sources have reported it's for $66 million, or an annual average value of $8.25 million.

Hmmm... I wonder what will happen with Perry.

Wow... talk about "contract year" boost:
2011-2012
82GP 11G 46A 57PT -11
2012-2013
22GP 9G 18A 27PT +10
48GP 20G 39A 59PT +22 (current pace)
82GP 33G 67A 100PT +37 (pace over 82)
That contract is obscene. It will be interesting to see if he disappears again. AKA Franzens out.

$8.25 million?
Glad we avoided that.

This sucks. I wanted to see him test the UFA market and hopefully answer Kenny's call.
Wings need some Ryan Pulock in the 1st round, a goal scorer in the 2nd round and rounds 3-7 all guys 6'4 or bigger. Please sign Dekeyser to play with Smith. <--Dekeyser signed, Paired next year. Mark your calendars.
Tootoo needs a partner in crime that plays like him on the other side of Helm. Oh hey, we have Mitchell Callahan. Problem solved.

At that price, Kenny would GetzLAF in his face. "How much?! Hahaha!... and I thought Parise was nuts..."

I do not get this league at all, We had a lock out and this craziness is still going on. Perry will defenitely be hitting the open market now.

LOL for Chicago too.
Kane and Toews currently making $6.3 each. They are both coming due in the next 2-3 years.
Although, this will be irrelevant for the Wings starting next year....

Getzlaf is a cornerstone piece for the Ducks. Like Dats, he is going to be paid top dollar. So will Perry and Ryan. Not surprised at this contract. All the people who were on capgeek and saying that Perry and Getzlaf would each sign for 5 million per year are obviously crying right now.

The Ducks just hamstrung themsleves for the next 8 years. I'm also a big fan of Getzlaf but what does this mean Crosby, Stamkos or Malkin will make in their next contract?10 mil per? 11?

about 2m higher then I would have expected! What do they offer Perry? They still have lots of room to get it done.

I'm honestly not surprised. I would love Getz if he played for someone other than the Ducks. As it is, I hate him because we play against him, but would love him in our sweater.
My money on the board pledge:
$1 for each goal scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.
An additional $5 for each hat trick scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.
An additional $10 if any of the above goals is the GWG goal that gives us the series win.
An additional $50 if it is the GWG that wins us the Cup.
$5 for a SO by Jimmy.
Hamsters' names (current players in RED): Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik

And introducing: Jordin Damien Gustav James

Other teams don't undervalue their stars like the Red Wings do.
We're lucky guys like Datsyuk and Kronwall are willing to play for Detroit at such crappy prices for their skill level and comparative rates.

The only thing that surprises me is how many people thought the lockout would translate to lower cap hits. I thought he could get around $10M as a UFA so this seems about right.
I almost spontaneously combuted when I read that AAC value. I agree that there are players who could get $10 million per year, but the idea that Getzlaf is an upper-end trend-setter for that trend is borderline absurd. This guy had 11 goals in 82 games last year. His playmaking is unquestionably elite, but his numbers are basically Saku Koivu.
I know the guy won a Cup, but you can't contribute that kind of money to a guy. As was said above, how do you Corey Perry or Bobby Ryan for LESS than that now? I'm pretty sure anyone who had to guess who would be the most productive out of those 3 in the next 8 years would have Getzlaf 3rd in that discussion (I would, anyway).
