I hope that he is flexible and willing to respond to changing circumstances, that seems like a strength.
But imagine for a second that this team is at the same spot in the standings and Lindholm and Hanifin both signed 8 year deals totalling $130 million at the end of training camp.

We know they were negotiating for sure. That was confirmed by Conroy.
I don't think we know what was offered or rejected and by whom.
