What do you think he'll get? He'll be nearly 29 by the time his next contract kicks in and he already makes 6M. If you can fit him in now, there's not much of a concern fitting him in going forward.
That 2022 off-season is going to be a future defining one anyways. Gaudreau and Giordano up, Monahan (and Neal) one year away. Could be huge changes. I think you play for the 2020-2022 seasons when you still got Gaudreau and Giordano in the mix for sure.
Benefit while the top line of Gaudreau, Monahan and Lindholm are on sweet heart deals instead of waiting to see what happens when they need to be re-upped. I would rather the team be elite by adding someone like Hall for the next couple years and then see what happens then not making a move because 5 years from now it might not be great.
