And whose to say that he doesn't get a career ending injury next year? NHL careers on average are very short, and there are many factors in the game that can make them even shorter. Passing on 28 million dollars of guaranteed money would be stupid IMO, especially since when this contract is done he would be right in the prime for defencemen to make big money if he does continue to improve
