no. just what i mean.
that the AAV is is like 9.5
but years 1-4 is like 14, 13, 12 million.
but the end is like 7-6-5 or something. like the math works out. not like the old-backsliding (which you can't do anyway - but backsliding legally which a lot of contracts have in place anyway. Lupul's is like that, so was Kessels).
OK sorry, I wasn't 100% sure what you meant so I took I guess.
Sure, legal backsliding makes sense to me for several reasons. One, frees up cap space for when we'll really need it and two, will make Stamkos more easily tradeable (assuming he doesn't have a full NTC).
I never understand what what. "fairly" means. like are we supposed to run at a deficit because Ottawa or Florida or Columbus are budget teams? People always state that - they want to be "fair." What's that saying? All's Fair in Love & War and Sports-teams?
I'd assume to though that Kopi wasn' offered only a 1.5 million dollar raise to start negotiations either.
