I'm not sure our opinions are that far off honestly. I do think its an exciting age range for GMs (and different than Johnny or Kadri even Lindholm for example as UFAs)

I think it's super exciting if they are willing to sign for 4 or fewer years. I was a huge fan of the Matthews deal for Toronto for that reason - they are not paying prime money for what will be subprime years.
