With the Coyotes signing forward Clayton Keller to an eight-year extension through the 2027-28 season, they have guaranteed themselves at least nine more years of No. 9 on their roster.
The long-term deal, which carries an annual average value (AAV) of $7.15 million, is the second-largest contract handed out in team history and will make Keller the highest-paid forward on the team when the deal begins in 2020-21.
Keller's agent, Scott Bartlett, confirmed the details of the contract on Wednesday via his Twitter account.
