Option One
Four years @ five million per year, with an annual bonus of one million for 70 games played
Option Two
Two years @ six million per year, with an annual bonus of one million for 70 games played
Edit: On second thought, I wouldn't offer the two year deal. I'd want him signed for the next four years minimum. We just need him on the ice for more than 3/4 of a season.

Both of these are hilarious under pays. And ONLY two years of Norris calibar defense... so that puts him in a group with who Weber, Doughty, Keith, Subban and Karlsson? Do you really think any of those guys would get anywhere near $5 million a year?
I'll be amazed if its anything less than $7m/year and expect over $8m.
