PrintAccording to Aaron Portzline's Twitter, Rick Nash has signed an 8 year 62.4 million dollar deal with a cap hit of 7.8 million a year.
That's about as good as we could expect from a cap perspective. Hopefully it is frontloaded beyond all hell.
Hopefully CBJ nation will be able to take a deep breath. It is a big sigh of relief for many, but remember: stay patient. Nash said what he said to get a deal done quickly. It worked. He is our captain for the next 9 season.
Sorry Toronto.

Contract
From Puck-rakers……“He’ll make $7.5 million in 2010-11, and the contract goes up slightly each season before Nash makes $8.2 million in 2017-18.” There ya go. I’m an avid puck-rakers reader :)
and now
we can all sleep easy. way to go, Rick, congrats and we’ll see you for the next 8 years. here’s to bringing a cup or 2…or 3 to columbus!
"be where you are when you're there"
Some visionary posted this:
“I’d like to see 7-8 years for roughly 7.5 a year.
8 years, $61 million"
My prediction from here: http://www.jacketscannon.com/2009/5/27/890521/the-rick-nash-contract
Maybe I should be a GM. ;)

yesssss.
so happy. Rick Nash for another 8 years. i do agree with what i hear about giving Columbus some support in signing players now, possibly interested in playing with Nash(considering that he is locked now for 8 and Jackets seem to have an exciting young core coming out).
