In a huge and surprising turn of events, Brandon Montour has signed a massive seven year, $50 million dollar deal with the Seattle Kraken. The Kraken will be shelling out a whopping $7.14 million per year for Montour.
While the acquisition of Montour brings excitement, there are concerns regarding the financial aspects of the deal. Critics argue that the $50-million contract might be an overpay for the 30-year-old defenseman as he approaches the later stages of his career. Skeptics question whether Montour's performance can justify the hefty investment over the next seven years.
Despite the financial concerns, Montour's addition is poised to strengthen the Kraken's defensive lineup, bringing a blend of experience and offensive prowess. The Kraken hope that Montour's skill set will not only enhance their defensive game but also contribute to a more dynamic and versatile team approach as they aim for a successful season ahead.
