In the last year of the contract, if he continues to be a 70+ point player, you can probably recoup the 1st and 2nd on a deadline deal if you want, in which case it would cost you a 3rd round pick to grab Leon for the previous 4 and a half years, plus cap space (whatever value you put on slightly over paying him). Not sure why a team would not consider that type of contract.
Right, but I expect the Oilers are prepared to pay him 7.5 per. Not sure why they wouldn't be prepared for that.
