A defensemen’s primary objective is to stop the other team from scoring goals (and that’s coming from a guy who loved to play up ice from the point in his playing days).  This is what Komisarek does, and he does it at a very high level.  A level that is certainly worth $4.5 million per year on a contract that only takes him to his age 32 year. 

Quite frankly, this is the best contract handed out to a defensemen this year, and one of the top-4 handed out to any UFA this season.

Speaking of the other UFA contracts, lets look at some of the other signings that have taken place.
