Too much for only a year of Saros. Before you say "resign him"...he can't extend until July 1st after the draft.

If we can’t resign Henrique, I would take Glass in Edmonton! That is a very interesting deal for Florida… Tomasino was very good in the OHL. I would like to say they would take that. Gives them cap to do some resigns, and gives them a good young project, that could turn into one hell of a player.
