Brooks Laich

Today the Washington Capitals signed Brooks Laich to a 6 year, $27 million contract, effectively keeping him in a Caps uniform for several more seasons.  I am happy about this signing.  This will keep Ovechkin, Backstrom, and Laich in Caps uniforms (barring trades of course) for years to come. 

I do think the Caps overpaid slightly for Laich, but this being a very weak free agency year the Caps had to step up a bit to keep him.  Hopefully they're able to sign a few more guys.  July 1 will be interesting!
