Personally I can't see ownership take a 50% retention on the Markstrom contract. If so I'd wager a third party getting involved to take maybe 20% of that. With so many picks this year likely being dangled, the 10th overall will certainly be in play. It's just a matter of making the dollars work I'd think. With so many months to work at it I'd wager they have a general sense of who could work with them as third party brokers to retain some money for lower picks.
