$9.75M (like Gaudreau) seems OK and they can give him 8 years if he really wants, structured for easy buyout. Or give him Tkachuk’s $9.5.

I would go higher if you have to. Paying a guy like Huberdeau top dollar will not be the reason why you suck if you do. If he is overpaid at 10.75 million he is over paid at 9.75. Cheap out on your 4th line and your 3rd d pairing. Obviously if you can get it done at a lower number do it, but if I was Brad I would be flexible on the top end.
