I'm pretty sure that's what it'll take, and he'll be 31 by the time next season starts. Paying a power forward money like that until he's 36/37 sounds like a recipe for disaster.
I'd love to have Neal on this team for the next couple of seasons, but I can't see him signing for a short term like that.

Neal and Kessel are both 30 years old. Kessel is still under contract for $8M a year for four more years, so yes, I would rather pay Neal $5M for five years than Kessel $8M for 4 years.
