The league has changed over the past couple years. McDavid, Draisaitl, Eichel.. star players are getting big money right after their ELCs now. If Gaudreau had signed after McDavid he'd be making $8M easily.
I'll be pretty surprised if Tkachuk isn't the highest paid player on the team after he gets his new deal.

It all depends on production...what RFA player has gotten 7.5M that hasn't been in the 70-80 point range? (Eichel is below that because of injury but is point per game this season)
Not that I would be upset if he gets there but IDK....that would mean Calgary has two pretty solid scoring lines
