Here is the number that the Oilers need to exceed... 102.2M. That's NHL max salary x 7 because someone will (or at least should) offer it.

Considering most pundits think he will be signed by the end of July 2017 there will be zero offer sheets. Not to mention.. Are there any teams that can (and are willing) to add that sort of salary straight up?
I still think his AAV is between 10 and 12 on an 8 year deal. With an outside shot at 12.125 per which is 97 million/8 years because of the weird number thing we see in the NHL these days.
