The reluctance to hand out max term deals to ELC players because it’s too risky is hilarious precisely because of people like Brouwer and Neal (who is guaranteed to score 20 goals). There’s risk in both but at least with kids, they are still at their peak physically and can learn a few things.

Yeah, I won’t be sad if he is traded but I’d be fine if he re-signs. A player like Hanifin will never sign a four year deal though. He’ll get 7 or 8 from whoever he ends up with and that’s just the market.
