I am not sure its wise to give a 31 year old his biggest contract of his career. If that is Muzzin's ask, you let him walk. I think anything more than 3 years term unless he take a longer front loaded deal with the thought of eventually retiring early or whatever, you just let him go. His best days are probably behind him. He's still really good no doubt but to expect value out of a contract like this is extremely risky.

This is the first time he's been injured, but yes the idea is front load it, so it can be moved if required down the line

Muzz will probably be offered 18-20 million over 4/5 years and that's about all he should be offered

Moving a 6+ million dollar cap hit isn't easy. Ever, look how many teams are near or close to the cap, you can't afford to ever have a high cap hit for potentially declining assets. This contract is terrible.
