Hold on a sec. How much leverage does he have to command alot more money?
He hasn't scored more than 40 points since the 2011-2012 season, and last season wasn't exactly a highlight reel year for him. He also is wildly inconsistent. Should Flames management be rewarding that?
The only way I can see he get's a relatively massive pay raise is if Burke/Treliving see him as a anchor on the left side with intangible qualities. Anything more than $4 million and I'm not sure there's much more benefit.
Also, an extension should be no longer than 3 years. Max.
