I think 6 mill is cap retention, total, is worth a mid to late 1st. At least.
Just based on prices we've seen for when teams take on pure cap. Carolina took on the $6.25 million cap hit of Patrick Marleau in exchange for a 1st round pick (13th overall) in the 2020 NHL entry draft.
But here, it would only be about 2.5 seasons.
I don't think you're that far off, but it does seem like a steep price.
