That would be pretty awful actually, one of Joe's few blunders in quite a while.If we get Toews for 2.5 on a contract longer than 2 years, Sakic is truly a master at his craft... That would be robbery.
No matter what the $ value is, any 1 or 2 year deal for Toews is a blunder. You dont acquire a quality #3D like that, give up pretty decent value to get him, and turn around and sign him to his perfect contract that walks him right into free agency.
We have plenty of cap space to get him signed at 4-4.5M for a 4-6 year term, that needs to be the deal they get to.
