8 million second contract? No, Johnny. No. If he turns in to Kane 2.0 it's all good. If. IF. Two seasons on a run and gun offense under Hartley and no hardware to show.
I sincerely hope the rumors aren't true. Send him east for a king's ransom if he holds out for 8m.

Yikes. Looks like some disparaging comments towards Johnny from a vocal minority.

Nobody is belittling Monahan anymore so than they are belittling Johnny. There have been tons of posts critiquing Johnny's past performance and questioning his ability to perform in the future. As well as people calling into question his personal character. Questioning Monahan's dependency on Gaudreau is completely legitimate in that scope.

I take it you think a 8yr 6.38M - 6.75M AAV offer is equitable and fair? That's an insult. Its no wonder the two sides aren't talking.
