What's the deal with Benn? Money or term hanging up the signing? Both?

Actually it is kind of both. Benn is in a unique position since he is 23 which is a couple of years older than some comparable players. The Stars would like to sign him to either a 2/3 year short term contract or a 5/6/7 year long term contract while Benn's agent want a 4 year contract which would take him right to his UFA status. Assuming the Stars will not agree to a 4 year deal, they have to arrive at a dollar compromise depending on which way Benn wants to proceed.
