Just over 6M a year for 8 years for a warrior, leader, and someone who saves his absolute best for the playoffs.
Does it get better than this?

Those were 2 seperate contracts tho. The first contract was 17.3% of the cap, which was utterly massive and only 5 years. Still incredibly valuable just because of how good he is, but not a particular bargain.Crosby at $8.7M AAV since 08-09
think about that
Duncan Keith for the entirety of his prime at 5.5 million I'd say is better, but Marchand's is pretty sweet too.
It also helps with lesser players asking for more come resigning time . Dubas got caught a few years back saying we will match any offer sheet anybody comes at them with and we will keep all of our core no matter what . They over pay one then the next wants the same or more then the next and so on . Cap hell is a bitch .Whether its actually the greatest is irrelevant. The important aspect is having key players on lower $ contracts which helps fill out the roster more easily.
Not bad contract. Result in 1 title in 20 years.
The only people that hate him are fans of other teams in the East. Everyone else loves him.He's easy to hate, but no one can deny that Marchy is a great Captain. Gritty, tough, and high energy and skill. Dude leads from the front and as a Bruins fan I'm enjoying his Captaincy so far.
