It's a tough look to pay a ppg player $10-11/year, but it's fine if he's a 1.4ppg.

He's the straw that stirs the drink for the Flames. That's worth more than just his PPG. Without him I'm not sure this team makes the playoffs next season so how much is it worth to be a contender compared to an also ran? It's probably not going to be a great contract on the back half but it rarely ever is with players signing their last big deal as you either make the commitment to win or commit to mediocrity.
