It's not without risk, but I have a hard time imaging it ever being a terrible deal. On the other hand if he continues to develop into the scoring threat he was this year it could be a MONSTER of a deal.
Josh Norris has really fine tuned his shot the last few years, to the point that he is probably one of the best pure shooting talents in the league. The biggest concern with this deal is that Josh Norris is by no means a driver of offense, and his defensive game took a notable step back from his rookie season where he was very solid. If he can continue developing that scoring touch and fine tune his defensive game I think this contract will be great.
I think Josh Norris has such a great shot that he could be a threat to score 40+ goals any given season. I'm definitely not saying he's going to be a consistent 40 goal guy, just that he has the shot to be in that zone. I think he should be able to sleep his way to 30+ a season through his prime.
I'm calling it a W.
