Tough to say.
I feel like if you offer Andersson $8.5M x 8 you're not going to have too much of an an issue re-signing him.
I think if Sergachev's deal was great value or a discount in the $6-7M range then I'd 100% agree but I feel like you'd be able to get 2 x $4.4M of Andersson and extend to 8 x $8.5M pretty easily.
Now for a team like Utah I think the 7 years of team control helped for sure, but a different team will probably be pretty confident they could re-sign him for $8.5M.
