It's the Gio contract without the age risk.
I feel like the people diminishing the value of this contract are some of the same that defend the contract for Rasmus. Fox doesn't need to grow into this deal, he will likely grow out of it.

And I feel like people are taking "it's a fair deal, not some steal" or "I like Makar a little better" a little too hard.
I agree - the cap increase (or freeze) will have a lot to say about this deal and the others like it. Some teams are clearly banking on a bigger increase.
