He might be the only player in history that has ALL 32 teams offering 20% of the cap (max $’s per CBA) x 7 years. That’s almost 20m per season. He would be a fool to take a discount and stay with Edmonton for the rumored 5 years. That’s soooo much money left off the table. The cap is going up, everyone will line up to overpay for his services.

The main advantage Edmonton has is being able to offer 8 years. If he signs for less term, he can do that anywhere. Maybe he does that in Edmonton. He already gave them a few UFA years, so he might just be that dumb.
