For a second line Center with consistant Second line PP minutes being the league for 7-8 seasons I am not convinced his career high 53 points justify's a 6 year extension of 5.35m per year.
I will say this I hope the main reason he has been not as good the last month or so is because of hopfully the distraction of negotiations. In his own end he has not been as reliable which is where he is strongest.
The team needs him to get his game back on track.
Since the start of 2018 10 pts, minus 5. Last point 8 games ago.
