Yes - but a) it's one season, b) it's illusory as he was given an increased offensive role and his production dropped IMMEDIATELY as soon as Duchene came back, and c) it's just a bad contract because of the 2nd year dollar figure. Does anyone seriously think this guy is worth a 6.8 QO in 2 years?
If I'm Sherman I wash my hands of this whole thing and take the picks and run with 'em.
