Lots of team lock up younger players for what fans think are overpayments . Some work and some don’t . Some GMs decide not to “overpay” and it can be a smart or poor decision
With JG it was a mistake

So you would be have patted him on the back in August 2021 if he signed a small player who was pacing at 60 points the past 3 seasons to a 8 year deal at 9 million per season?
Or would you have thought it was mistake at the time? This is prior to him having everything come together with his 115 point season.
It wasn't just his on ice performance that sucked, his off ice commitment to training and everything else has been questionable.
