I’m aware. And that was too much then and now, especially for Toews. But look at winger salaries in general. If JG got $9M he’d be making just under Mikko Rantanen, and I just don’t think he’s at that level. Do you?
ETA: On your addition, I’m perfectly willing to pay Gaudreau $8M. I’m talking about more than the $8.5 that a comparable producer who plays a 200 foot centre game is making.
And being the best on a bad offensive team shouldn’t get bonus points. Oliver Bjorkstrand was the best offensive player on Columbus and I’m not paying him that much. See also Pavel Zacha, Brady Tkachuk, etc.
