3rd Line Winger
He’s worth no less than 9M because his game is complete. He’d be super valuable based on his defensive abilities alone. That he’s likely about to score 40+ again is pretty crazy.
On top of that the gamesmanship he brings is a valuable intangible, as well as his physicality for his size and in a limited sample size a clutch playoff game. Biz on Spittin’ Chiclets was very seriously saying he thinks he could be a 10M player.
Obviously if you are offering 8.5 you are willing to go 9 + but as you approach 10 you gotta decide if you want to wait until after 25/26
