It doesn't 'change your math', it changes the entire basis of your argument.

Hathaway just signed 1.5x3

Ferland just signed for 3.5 after a 40 point season.

There's no comparable to suggest what you're saying.

The flames are overpaying their 4th line tough guy by about 3-4 million per year. You don't have to try to prove everything is great all the time.
Hathaway is meh and isn't worth $1.5 and If Ferland would have signed here for $3.5 we still would have been stuck with Neal's $5.75. Buyout? we are talking about throwing away over $15m just to sign a Ferland who appears to be one punch in the head away from retirement.
