Sorry I left out an assumption of an 11M AAV on a 7 year contract from another team. That is 77M (versus Calgary's 84M deal) leaving 7 million to be made up in the last year. If they pay 11.5, he'd need a 3.5M deal in year 8.
If Calgary goes up to 11M they will be paying him 88M. To make the same money over 7 years he has to get $12.6. Or, if he gets 11.5 over 7 from team X he needs 7.5 in a new contract (at age 35) to make the same over 8 years.
