I suspect you'll only get Gio for $7.5 if you give him term, which I think is probably a mistake. I think we'd be much better giving him $9MM on a short contract (3 years?). Then if he's still got it he can get Selanne style one year deals, or you use that space for things like Bennett's next contract.
