For 3 years, I would be happy with 3.5AAV, or even pushing it to 4. Anything over that and I think it stops making sense.
See that's still a little high for me. But when I stop and really think about it I think it would be easier to slightly overpay for Maroon if we weren't already weighed down by a horrible Brouwer contract who is at this point a worse Maroon. Honestly if we didn't have Brouwer on the books I would say 3x4M?..... Giver let's do.

It's been a good, not great, but good July1 I think and unless you can get a really reasonable price on Maroon you have to walk away and try to allow for some growth from within.

That's why my number is going to be a 2 x 3M or a 3 x 2.5M. Which I fully expect to not be close to enough to get him to sign in Calgary. Which is also ok.
