I bet it was on the table.

What you are fixating on with Landeskog is not even the point I was initially trying to make which is frustrating. Just because Johnny hasn’t signed a deal now doesn’t mean he won’t later and doesn’t mean it needs to be $11M per now to make it happen
I'm "fixated" on Landeskog because that was the example you used. Which I think is a poor example. Nuge would be a better example but he's also a secondary player who likely never had the demand and offers Johnny will. Doesn't mean Johnny won't sign but I think he's in a much different situation than both of those players.
