Ducks Lock Up Carlsson for $90M | NHL News
Description
Leo Carlsson is staying with the Anaheim Ducks after they matched a massive five-year, $90 million offer sheet from the Philadelphia Flyers — the largest contract in NHL history at $18 million annually. The 21-year-old center, who delivered 67 points in 70 games and 11 points in 12 playoff games last season, called the deal “pretty much anyone would sign,” but made it clear he wanted to remain with his hometown team. The Ducks, who drafted him second overall in 2023, saw him as a franchise cornerstone from day one and avoided losing four first-round picks to the Flyers. With Carlsson locked in long-term, Anaheim is now focused on building a championship contender around their young star.
