Do you think Johnny wouldn’t get $10M as a UFA?
Please, don’t anyone think I don’t believe it’s possible Johnny will extend here.
I think they need to give him a reason to do it. He probably would, if he knew Eichel was going to be his centre in three months.

I don't see Gaudreau getting $10M as a UFA. I just don't see a team where it would make sense. How much did Hall sign for, $8M? This year he signed for $6M x 4, but he definitely took a discount to stay in Boston. I thought he was a pretty good comparison, though at a cash strapped year. This year Landeskog's $7M x 8, and Couturier's $7.75M x 8 are the closest comparables... If John can get $10M then best of luck to him elsewhere.
