That is not what I was saying. I think they share a lot of the same intangibles. Look how Sens fans talk about him. He is the heartbeat of their team just like Matthew.
If I am a Sens fan I am really happy with this deal today. Brady definitely needs to step it up offensively but when you hear that he wants a bridge so he can get to UFA then all of a sudden he is signed for 7 years I would be ecstatic.
If we heard tomorrow that Matthew was signing a 6-8 year deal at $9.5M per I would be pumped and would be full on board with giving him the C immediately
