Four years and eleven million in total sound about right for Hagelin.

I bet jimmy r feels stuipd trading fast depth player after trading than trying trade back for him
This is trash… I hate this and the capitals
Was always one of my favorite players with the Pens. He's a good defensive player and if he can stay healthy and regain some of that old speed this will be a solid extension for the Caps.
4 years.. yikes
I wonder if any Hagelin' took place during negotiations.
4 years tho 😑 he’s dropped off the last couple years. I didn’t want the Pens to sign him when there were those rumors
A lot of people complain about the cap hit and the length of the term, but I say this new contract is pretty reasonable. Even if Hagelin declines, a $2.75M cap hit is still easy enough to move out to other teams, either if they want to take a chance or to pad their minimum cap space.
Smhhh hagelin
Solid deal. Works for both parties. I think Hagelin will help the Caps even more come next postseason after a full year playing with this group. He fit in right away this year and had 11 points in 20 games between the end of the regular season/playoffs. Meshed well on the PK and is pretty versatile. Now it’s time to lock up Vrana.
wow
Caps fan here, I like it. Have nothing bad to say about it really. Term and cap hit don’t bother me. (Maybe he is a guy Seattle takes???)
I miss Hagelin. He was instrumental on that Rangers team, which ranked #1 in penalty killing.
I think the cap hit is alright. Length, tho, maybe a year or two too long
Seems like a reasonable contract. Now I definitely see why the CAPS made that trade.
The worst thing the Capitals could have done after a first round upset was do what their upset fans wanted them to do.
As a Pens fan I still wish he was here
From a penguins fan, this is an overpay.. He'll get like 4 goals and 11 assists, he was invisible in the Carolina series except every 7 minutes or so when he'd skate in alone and take a slap shot from 60 feet out
100% perfect I love it
I think you hit the nail on the head with "reasonable".
Uhm… no?
Good signing but making July 1st less interesting
Still miss him, the line of Hags, D-Brass, and Zucc was godly and seriously helped us in those playoff runs
He has lk 11 points in 20 games for the Caps… not bad at all
Meow!
Hags nooo
That cat tho
🙁 In the back of my mind, I thought he would come back
Best of luck Hags!! We’ll miss you in Pittsburgh
I was really hoping he came back to Pit. Owell
YES!! VERY GLAD TO SEE THIS!!
trouba got traded to the rangers
Hagelin was a must resigning for the caps
Love Hags since his days with the Rangers. Super solid on the PK, speedy as hell, tons of hustle. Hate that he’s on another rival!!! Glad he’s gonna get some contract security
