Ducks Lock In Carlsson for $18M | Anaheim Ducks News

The Anaheim Ducks just locked down elite young center Leo Carlsson with a five-year, $90 million deal — making him the highest-paid player in the NHL. The move, anticipated by owners Henry and Susan Samueli who kept cap space open, signals a bold bet on Carlsson’s future as a franchise cornerstone. Already a standout with 67 points and 29 goals last season — the second-highest goal total for a Ducks player 21 or younger — Carlsson’s playoff leadership and international experience (including Olympic selection) only add to his value. GM Pat Verbeek called him a franchise player since day one, praising his character and on-ice excellence. With over 200 NHL games and 141 points already under his belt, Carlsson is poised to lead Anaheim’s next era.
