The arbitrator cannot hand out anything longer than a two-year contract. And since I think even that is the team's choice, and Montreal has asked for a one-year deal (so he's still RFA when it expires), that is what it will be.
A one-year, $8 million deal is a big win for Subban, as it starts next year's negotiation right in the range he wants.
