Senators sign defenceman Artem Zub to multi-year contract extension
The Ottawa Senators announced on Wednesday that they've agreed to terms on a four-year contract extension, beginning in 2023-24, worth $18.4 million ($4.6 million AAV) with defenceman Artem Zub.
Zub's contract will see him earn $4 million in the first year and $4.8 in the three years to follow. It also includes a ten-team no-trade last.
"Artem's transition to North American hockey has been remarkable," said Senators general manager Pierre Dorion. "He has worked hard to establish himself as an excellent NHL player and a strong defender. He consistently helps make us a better defensive team while he's on the ice. We're pleased to reach agreement with him on an extension of this length."
He was set to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1st, but it was eluded to on Insider Trading on Tuesday night that the Ottawa Senators wanted to get him locked up before Christmas.
In 14 games this season, the Khabarovsk native has four points (two goals, two assists), ten penalty minutes and is a minus-one.
