I think he has to realize this is a special group and if he wants to be a part of that he will have to accept a shorter term deal, and I know Brad and Brian probably feel the same way. I think 4/28 is a very fair deal it takes him to 37 and pays him 28 million over 4 years. If he insists on getting a contract 8 years in length that pays 9 million then we should trade him asap.
8/8/6/6/5/5/4/4

5.75 AAV, I could live with that

If he wants 8 years, no way should it be over 6 Million cap hit. He should still be able to play 3rd pairing at the end point. No different than David Jones playing on our 3rd and 4th line now.
