Is this limit of 3-4 based on the convoluted RGI?
You can't say his contract is a disaster until he stops earning it. He just eclipsed his career high in goals despite a poor start to the season. He still anchors the top pair which is our best offensive and defensive pairing. He's a phenomenal captain. You can't say the contract is a disaster until there's a significant drop in his play. It could happen, but there's a chance he could also remain elite into his mid-late 30's like Lidstrom. Guy is a fitness freak. Don't bash the guy on an assumption that he will regress until it actually happens.
