I think it is safe to say that the flames will be drafting in the 15+ range next year. Hamilton was a 9th overall pick, has good size and has proven himself. I feel there is a tiny chance at finding a 1st 2nd or 3rd who is better than him at any point throughout their careers. We also have a pretty full cupboard of prospects and don't want to lose too many when their contracts are up to go somewhere with a better chance.
My only concern would be term.... throw the 7.3 at him for 2 years or hit the 6 million mark with a 5 year deal.
Edit: didnt know what pharmacist posted above where term relates to compensation.
