"TSN.ca this morning is reporting that Bruins center Marc Savard has agreed to a seven-year contract extension, to begin next October, that will pay the then 33-year-old an average of some $4.2 million a season, for a total approaching some $30 million. Today's Globe and Boston.com reported that Savard, now in his fourth year with the Bruins, was on the verge of signing (possibly as early as today) the seven-year deal and likely would earn in the range of $4.5 million-$4.8 million (Boston.com)."
Wow if this is true, what a steal for the Bruins. Savard's cap hit actually goes down, and the Bruins get him for the next 7 years. I will update when it is made official, but this deal had been rumored for a long time, so I expect this to be true. The Bruins have now signed David Krejci, Milan Lucic, and Marc Savard to long term deal setting up the base for Boston for the foreseeable future. Great job Bruins!
