Anze Kopitar's 8-year, $80M ($10M AAV) contract with LAK is, finally, in final stages of paperwork. So not officially "done" but very close.

Not cheap for Kopitar.

Good signing. Kopitar is better than toews and is getting paid less

Fair contract for Kopitar. It takes him up til age 36/37 when it'll probably look bad but the team has no choice; if they don't give it to him, someone else will (and probably even more money).

Buff and Vrbata asked to submit a list of teams they would accept a trade to.

Hamhuis needs to be included in this.

What other Buff is there? Buff Bagwell?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
