If he wanted to be a real pain he would ask for 4 years

4 years buys 2 UFA years.

Overpayment 8M is overwhelming for this guy

Have you seen recent signings for younger forwards?

Takes like this are a hockey IQ test.

1) Contracts are up.

2) He has excellent even strength production the last two years and just doesn't see PP 1 time. And he's been rapidly improving since the end of last season.

I just looked at the data if you include last season (regular season and playoffs) and so far this season Laf has 34 even strength points in his last 38 games. That's almost half a regular season and that's almost 0.9 even strength points per game. He's been improving in this area exponentially and has a ton of room to grow.

You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

Give him a break, he's just jealous that despite being a f***ing all-star and getting 50in07 he never made 8m AAV. Poor Dany doesn't get inflation.
