If they are coming in at two or three years, that's a fantastic situation proving short-term stability during a time of rebuilding. It's not like the Flanes don't have reams of cap space. If they extend for two or three years, this still provides options to make trades in the future.
But, of course, there is no way either Kuzmenko or Mantha is signing short-term deals here.

There's the rub. Now,
maybe there's a scenario where they are traded pre-TDL and a contract like you are proposing looks palatable to them after testing the UFA market in the summer and seeing the offers from other teams. Unlikely, though.
