Why does Anderson get 8 years when a guy like Pionk similar age just got 6?

That said 4--6-8 years, what Bingo stated applies. Legitimate top 8 team trying to win a cup the right now matters.

For a team like the Flames...if they're honest with themselves they don't really know what they are right now and still need time to build their identity. So that timeline really doesn't line up with Ras for the next 5 years.

But I wouldn't be going to the UFA market to sign a replacement for more than two years.
