Last 'legitimately' reported offer form the Habs last night was for just under 8 for 8 years wasn't it?

I really think Subban accepts anything close to 8.5 and up

I don't really care either.

But hey, who knows, maybe Subban is an ass.

Quite possible. But pay that ass whatever he wants.

I don't think there'd be much of a problem if they were 500k apart per season.

I don't get why people think that's so outlandish. 5 years from now he'll be 30, very likely an elite D, and making 10mill while the McDavids of the league are getting their first big deals at like 13-14 mill/yr.

If this was the case, it would have taken 3 minutes for them to say "lets meet in the middle at 8.25/yr" and avoid this arbitration bullpoop.

I agree, it would have been settled by now.

Agreed. I said it before, don't care how much he makes, just sign him 8 years.

He's responsible for more of the teams offence than any forward. The team has a hard enough time scoring goals, they're going to look like (frank)ing Nashville if they trade Subban.

On an eight year deal I expect he'll be pissing up a rope then

That's a lot of money Scott.

And all he's worth at this point imo, sorry.

At this point, ya. But the problem with a long-term deal is you have to take into account what he's likely to be worth later on, and that comes into account when the cap hit is calculated.

at this point yes but looking at the history of the salary cap the last few years and seeing as there are already a couple of guys who passed the 10M mark it might be tough to convince him of that.
