Weegar holds the cards here, even with a slight drop off he will have a big market at UFA.
I think Spurgeon is a decent comparison, but he had 4-5 years of really good production, versus 2 for Weegar. I think that might make some difference.

Also, are we sure the Spurgeon contract is a good one? Not sure how great a value that one is.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
