Hopefully the NHL looks at the NBA model of contract length, and length for players who turn 35 or 36 older on long term deals.
Right now, it should be if you turn 35 in any year of an 8 year deal you are not eligible, and it has to be a 5-year deal.
Max term 35 plus guys at 2-year deals. Or 1+1 team option.
Player movement it stuck.
