 @TheFourthPeriod: Expecting Kings and Gaborik to finalize new contract as early as today. Both sides working to quick conclusion.
 
 
 @drosennhl: Kings announce Gaborik has signed a 7 year contract.
 @RealKyper: #Kings Gaborik #NHL 7 yr deal comes in just north of 34m. His aav comes in under 5m. Good deal for LA
 
 
The AAV is good, but not the years IMO

The AAV is not too bad though, but 7 years is pretty awful

The 7 is fine. He can walk and there is no cap penalty.
It's pretty much a lump cost for them though. Probably after 4 years. He's also injury prone

Basically. With the cap continuing to go up, 4.9 for a guy who can probably give you 25-30 goals isn't bad.
 
Get 4 years and then whatever.
