This seems like a good bet for Seattle to make. Even if he doesn't fully live up to expectations, the cap hit is manageable for a top 6 player.

$7 million is the new $5 million.
People also need to consider that they see more than just what we see as fans. They see what Beniers is capable of in practice and when he's not contributing on the ice. They have a much better gauge of his talent. The whole team last year was garbage. The highest scorer had 62 points.
Even if Beniers tops out as a 55-60 point guy, this is a fair contract. He obviously still has the potential for much more.
