Possibly give Hudler a retirement contract. 6 years at $27M (6,6,5,4,3,3) for a cap hit of $4.5M, with a NMC in the first 4 years of the deal. Gives him a big part in the team going forward and allows him to move down the lineup as he slows down without hurting the team or its bottom line. Not sure if he would take that, but that is good money and provides him stability down the line.
