Funny enough, Zadorov's 5M salary is #64 in the league for defencemen (tied with Samuel Girard). So it's borderline #2/3 money. Personally, I'm not that fond of McCabe or really any of our defensemen but here we are.
He’s making 4 mill now. I doubt he takes a pay cut.I know McCabe is at least half decent because I don't often find myself swearing at the tv at him.
I like McCabe too. But I don't like him $5M much. Not even $4M much.
Even though somebody will probably give him that.
Is McCabe really one of the top sixty four defensemen in the league. He's never made any top fifty list that I've ever seen. I suppose he could be one of the remaining fourteen players left.
Just because I don't think he's all that good doesn't mean he actually isn't.
Clearly he's established a following among a large portion of the greatest fan base in the world. He plays a rugged style and doesn't screw up a whole lot. I just don't know if being not bad is good enough.
Is he really worth $5M and a top four role on a cup contending team.

McCabe was our #2 last year behind Rielly and has been our second most important addition to the blue line in the Matthews era behind Jake Muzzin.
Brodie made $5,000,000/year and Muzzin made $5,625,000/year (both in their 30's).
McCabe at $5,000,000 to $5,350,000 would be fair for both sides.
