Lupul inks Four Year Contract Extension

The Flyers have signed Joffrey Lupul to a four year contract, that'll probably be worth about 4.25 million a year. The article says financial terms were undisclosed, but 4.25 was the rumor several days beforehand.

Websites like TSN were reporting this as early as Friday, and I guess the Flyers just wanted to wait until the weekend was out to make an official announcement. Lupul is a very good sniper when healthy, and a lot of fans are breathing a sigh of relief as that potential cap number is a lot lower than it could've been. However, I still have to question how we plan on building a team with so many high-priced forwards.
