Hurdler won't get and doesn't deserve anything more than a one year, one million "show me" type of contract. And I don't see anyone giving up a second rounder for Shin

its a two year show me contract. lol. With our space under the cap and RFA next season, 1 year may be a lose/lose. He doesn't do well, and we dont keep him, or he does well, and we over pay him. remember where he would be in th eline up, his numbers would be inflated, and the last player that really gelled with those two, was him. TSN keeps talking about Jagr and Iginla (45 and 40), I think a 2 year on a 33 year old who was a point per game guy in as similar an environment as you can get, if he was willing to take less than $2M, which lack of offers suggest there is a good chance, then I think it would actually be smart to get him for 2 years, because you wont be able to afford him for year 2. We are not talking about insance 4.5M/5year risks. We gavce up a rostered player for Shinkaruk, he puts up great AHL points, I would be that there would be a team out there that would put aside the odd personality for a 2nd rounder. I agree, I wouldn't, hence the trade, but I bet you could.
