According to various sources the Toronto Maple Leafs have re-signed defenseman Carl Gunnarson to a 2-year contract. Although not official, the signing is imminent and should be announced by the end of the day. The terms of the deal are as follows; $2.6M overall, and an annual cap-hit of $1.3M. This, in my opinion, is a very solid deal for the Leafs. Looking at his performance, I would have expected him to get a deal as high as $2M per year and I would have considered that fair for both sides, so at this price its definitely a win by the Leafs. Gunnarson has been a very pleasant surprise and at 24 years old, he has developed into a very good top-four defenseman. He has good size at 6'2, 196 pounds, and moves the puck really well. In the past week, the Leafs have been able to lock up 2 pieces of their core for the next few years, which is a huge plus for Leaf Nation.
