So if you go above that, you can go up to $7 Mil and pay a 1st and 3rd. Realistically he would get something in the neighborhood of 5 to 5.5.
Mang re-signed here for $5.8 and 3 years following his 35 goal season, but never returned to that level. Geekie is coming off a 33 goal season. It might be a big risk giving up a 1st and 3rd to get him, but if you can get him for $4.68AAV and a 2nd rounder, it would be worth it IMO.

I was thinking Geekie would be a good one to attempt as well - doesn't have the "big game" label most would be looking at, but I think he does fit Connie's criteria.
Have never watched him play! so can't speak to that. But looking on paper - seems like he'd a good candidate to dig into.
