Conversely, I wouldn't mind 6 years if it was at a discount, like $5.5 or $6m.
But I think the Bruins are going to rue this deal in a few years.

Yeah I have to second this post. The $7MM per annum seems fair, however that term looks a touch long. I'm not sure I would have gone longer than 4 years. I do think if he was a UFA, particularly in a summer where there aren't many centers, he probably could have garnered more.
I think Krejci is a pretty excellent, underrated and effective centerman. Especially as a second line player... think about what Boston would be like without him. They'd end up being mediocre to good vs. an East favourite like they are now I think.
