How can you assume his value should be lower? You can't and don't know that.

But I don't believe Stephan is that good. A first line centre getting 50-55 points with lots of PP time is a recipe for losing, much like Stajan was for Calgary when he was a first line centre.
That production does not equate to winning anything other than being a marginal playoff team.
At a $6.5M cap hit for 5 more years, I don't call that a valuable package.
And I think that is where we'll have to agree to disagree.
