I agree that we should but with some precaution.
Hertl has had some major surgeries, it doesn't look like it is effecting him too badly but his speed has dropped quite a bit in the past few years.
I am not sure how comfortable I would be in signing him long term to big bucks. That being said in the short term he would.be a great 2C for us. Lindholm, Hertl, and Backlund make a very good trio of centers.
