He clearly loves it in Florida, and they may have saved his career by giving him an opportunity. I think there may be some loyalty to the team for that.
I could see $7-7.5 million for 6 years, but I know he'll be in demand, so it probably gets pushed higher if he goes to UFA.

He won't get more than Verhaege who just signed for 7M.
The owner Viola told him that he's the soul of the team, I don't see him going anywhere. Maybe 6.5M x 8?
