Sounds ok. Hughes is obviously a gamble. Rookie Hughes was worth $8

I think over 8 years we see more of rookie Hughes or better than last years Hughes.

We get Petey at 8 mil that's a steal.

Hughes 8 X 8 is perfect.

For Quinn Hughes 8x8 is risky but I see him along the same lines as Chabot in Ottawa. Over the life of the deal I think he’d provide enough value to justify it.

Look at the Flames hoping for 18 yr old Sam Bennett

These two carry some of the worst contracts in the league.

Brisson - Tavares, Duchene, Erik Johnson, Kyle Okposo, Barrie, Wennberg, Gardiner

Barry - Eriksson, Myers, Ladd, Tyler Johnson, Maatta, Rask, Byron, Ceci.

Benning about to get bent over again?

3rd year Hughes will be too.

If 8x3 for Petey and 8x8 for Hughes is true. Then yes.

They will walk in a few years and complain about how whatever GM couldn't get them enough "help" with the little cap space because they were overpaid.

Exactly.

It's been a pattern for Benning. Get the deal done for whatever the player wants and deal with the consequences later.

Benning will have to deal with new contracts for core pieces in the next three years with tight cap space AND trying to improve the team to become contenders during a period when the cap is expected to remain flat.

What could go wrong?

I loved when he did the thing on the Crocodile Hunter after Steve Irwin was killed.
