i don't know is that when he will be a UFA in 4 years? I'm not sure...Either way if they do not show a long term commitment to Brodie not a 1 or 2 year deal i think he walks once he is a UFA.
The noticeable trend in the NHL is players want longer deals and willing to take slightly less money if they like the city and team.
It is obvious Brodie was a rare bright spot in the roster last season so treat the kid right they again JMO are low balling him on money and term.
Who knows he might even hold out and if it is because of that i wouldn't blame him not at all.
