It took an idiot GM to accept that deal though, to give a player that kind of money and not get 7-8 years is truly nuts, and if true that as a US citizen Matthews only has to pay 10% tax on his signing bonus money Dubas should be hung for treason considering about 93% of the contract is up front signing bonus money.
