Them treating him like his some idiot and just lowballing isn't going to be happening because he's a rookie GM.

Nothing to do with him being a rookie. It's all because other GM's have options.
Hayes just went for a 6th and St Louis got him at 3 years at $3.5 mil.
I like Backlund more, but what does this make him worth if guys like Hayes are going for a 6th. 3rd?
Patience might be needed here and some teams might be calling later in summer but the trades right now aren't looking good for teams selling.
