I'm more than happy with $4.7 for a guy that puts up 60 points and can win a draw. Hell, bickell got $4 million and has never had more than 37 points.... And that was 3 years ago.

4.7 isn't bad. 5 years is too long.

I don't think 4.7 is bad. It's the years that is the concern.

Maybe he will waive his NTC in a few years to retire as a member of the Lightning.

Do you want to win now or on 5 years? A lot can happen in 5 years including a cap increase or healthy lecavalier. Only 2 years ago we complained about bryz contract being too long and that's a non issue now. I don't care about the term so much. Its an under 35 contract anyways.

I disagree. The caps gonna keep going up. So by the end of his contract he'll be slowing down but his cap hit will be more reasonable as well.

Cap hit not nearly as bad as I thought. Years are a concern but with the cap floor there is always going to be cap dumps, assuming his career isnt ended due to injury.

Hopefully they keep the kids and dump Mesz.
