That is more on point, IMO. $1.5M as the max, with $1.25M as a target and probably optimal for all.

I admit I didn’t realize Hathaway was UFA, thought he was RFA. Still hope Flames show some discipline here and not be afraid to take a hard line with bottom of the roster player.
One of the challenges is the very few forwards on ELC’s who could be competing for a spot next year. Still a 27 year old who averaged 10:32 minutes of ice time a game is close to replacement level. I like Hathaway a lot but I’m not putting much salary into my 12th forward. $950K on 1 year deal feels good to me.
