For a long time they had that stupid Gio cap and the organization finally realized you can’t operate like that.

Restricted free agency is in the CBA for a reason and you need to use the tool to get the best deal possible.
That's not that big of an "if". In his rookie season, he played at a 44 point pace.

Do you think Zary will be a better player this year? I think it's likely - and I think he'll also get a shot at centre. Can he produce 15-25% more points? Monahan damn near doubled his production from NHL Y1 to NHL Y2...
