I'm not worried about "overplaying our hand". Salary cap is worth pure gold in today's NHL, so if a team wants us to retain 50% on Markstrom for two seasons, they are right to ask for a lot. You're not just getting Markstrom in that case, you're getting Markstrom at 3m/year for two seasons, which is god damn ridiculous. Pay up or ride with Nico Daws and his 3.32/.895%, it's that simple.
