“I think that’s close,” Lamoriello said Monday night about re-signing Oduya.

“We are delighted to have Johnny Oduya stay with the organization,” said Lamoriello. “He has developed into one of the more talented young defensemen in the National Hockey League.”
Multi year deal, around $3M per season.
