If so, the Flames should be all over that deal hoping that club doesnt finish high in the standings.
It still feels like 2.75 is way more than what he provides, but in reality that is probably what it will take. I dont care about buying UFA years either as IMO he wont be anything more than a mediocre role player from here on out and those are guys you do not "buy" years of so they wont be lost.

I hear you.
Maybe he comes in cheaper.
But if you just look at production it's $2M based on last year's contracts and given where salaries are going you know it's upward.
Add in intangibles, metrics that suggest he has more in him, and an age that doesn't say he's peaked and it's hard not to see it approaching mid $2s at least.
