[QUOTE=flambers;7900538]Look at the league, there are 17 players with $9m or more
That contract would pay him more than Leon Draisait ($8.5m)
Cap space is a huge tool for any team....
Guadreau makes $6.75M, no chance he gets $9.0m in his next contract[/QUOTE
Draisaitl was an rfa , hadn't produced without McDavid and the cap was at 75m so he actually was getting paid a larger percentage of the cap than gaudreau would at 9m today. Also wanna guess what a contact would look like if Drai was Ufa after next season? Thats a bad example . Like I said though...if its 8 years its likely closer to 8m
