I guess I'm just comparing bridge contracts similar to what PK Subban got. He signed a small bridge deal and his salary ballooned to what it is now. Seemed like Montreal owed him a lot of backpay or something.

Subban's salary went up so much because he won a Norris trophy while he was on his bridge deal, and his 8 year deal was mostly UFA years. It had nothing to do with how low his salary was before.

- sureloss cleared that up quickly - so yeah, we can extend Monahan.
...why haven't we extended Monahan yet?!

Cause there's no rush to sign a 20 year old pending RFA? And they probably want to see if he can repeat last season first.
