I believe the fact that contract lengths are dropping to 7 years next year, is going to have a huge impact on guys that are negotiating this year. Bennett wanted to stay. Getting 8 years made it easier for him.

This is Andersson's last chance to get 8 years as well, you have to think that motivates him to be willing to sign with teams that are interested.
