Here's his contracts to date:
1. $2,625,000 3 year ELC
2. $3,450,000 3 year
3. $4,000,000 1 year
If the Flames offer him $9-10 million over 3 years I think he takes that and runs. Especially with how his wife is from here, and in-laws combined with the Flames being and up and coming team.

Exactly. He may be even more inclined to take term over avv. Something in the 3x5 area.
