Personally as a smaller market team I like being able to offer 8 years to a guy coming off an ELC to be able to keep them longer.

In a world where 6 years is the max then players are easily potentially UFAs at 27, even if the team gave them max term
Something like that, but the problem is...if you dont change the rules and level the playing field, someone else will come in and supplant you.

The NHL preaches that it wants Parity. Well...that has to be codified.
