Obviously I am not hoping anyone is hurt, but if McDavid goes down, or they have to shake up lines and Drai is on a line with any two other guys I don't think he is an 8.5 mill player. He is an absolute stud, but at 8.5 million there will surely be a few years out of the 8 that the contract is looking pretty bad.

8.5 for a top-line center who can dominate with the second-line is worth it. 8.5 for a winger for the best player in the world, who could turn Nail Yakupov and Benoit Pouliot into top level scorers, is far too much.

overpaid


What would you say now?

It was an overpay at the time. It's not one now.
