			Well, in about 4 or 5 years, $5 million will be the new $4 million, so it isn't that bad. 
  
Hopefully for them, he can maintain his current level of play though.  Seems a little risky for this type of player.

Brodie will be an RFA so won't have close to the amount of leverage.

Hes a ~30 point and mostly negative defenceman. Is he a top pairing or even top 4 guy?
