As they prepare to open their season in Prague Saturday, the Boston Bruins have been able to lock up star defenseman and team captain Zdeno Chara for what should be the remainder of his NHL career.

Chara, 33, has signed a seven-year contract extension, according to the team.

Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe is reporting -- based on a conversation with Chara's agent, Matt Keator -- that the deal is worth $6.5 million to $6.8 million per season. The deal, according to Dupont, will expire around his 40th birthday. TSN added more information, reporting the deal will pay Chara $45 million over seven years.
