JoCo was producing like a legitimate top 10 player for 30 games, and his agent knows that. I could see JoCo signing a 1 year bridge, hoping to play more like he did at the end of the year all season. He'd get a monster contract if he even fell off a bit.
I like JoCo a lot, and I feel there is significant risk with his contract, but I think he can be a long-term part of the Flames.
If Brad were to sign him to a 6-year, 2/yr deal, I don't know if it would necessarily be a bad thing.

6 years seems like way too long. Not sure why Colborne would agree to that. I do think he will be in the $2mil range, give or take.
An just no, to "JoCo".

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
