I wonder what option the Bennett camp would opt for? For the Flames management I would imagine their preference would be the reverse order of these options ie they would prefer a 5x5 deal.

Will be interesting to see how this negotiation shakes out.
That's a no brainer at 5x5.

If the offers were
2x2.5
3x3
4x3.5
5x4


Now instead of having to make 9 million in the 5th year to make the 4 year worth it, it would be 6M.
