Carlo continues to try and sign the best contract possible for not only himself but primarily the team.
Bruins keep developing that winning culture internally.
4 mil range is an average contract for a 2nd pairing. This narrative that it's "team friendly" something right out of the boston media or something?
There is no savings on that contract, at all.

This is probably an unpopular opinion here but I think this is a bit much.
Not by a crazy amount or anything, but Carlo is a solid but 1-dimensional #4 getting paid like a top4 Dman.
It's just one of those deals that's a bit too much for a bit too long.
It's not the dollar figure I mind on this contract but I think you hit the nail on the head with the length.
Look I know BOS homers will go crazy, but the guy has injury issues. He's had like 90000000000000 concussions already. Hell two last year knocking him out for long periods of time.
I don't know if I want a guy who's constantly on IR for 6 years.
If he didn't have the injury issues, it's whatever, probably good it's signed for 6 years, as the cap hit goes down over time.
But he does have the injury issues and the last thing anyone wants is Nick Bjugstad 2 for 6 years.
