I know we need to hit the floor, but 4x3.5M for Addison when I think he's questionable to get a QO is nuts. 5x3.5M for Emberson is also crazy...he played well for us and could prove worth that sort of money and more, and it could end up something we regret not offering him, but given his injuries this year I expect a 1-2 year deal max at the end of which he'll still be an RFA. Even Bordeleau's deal is really high. It makes sense now to get to the floor, but it means his QO will be higher after the deal ends at which point we'll be starting to sign some of our young guys to their non-ELCs (Eklund is due that year and the year after will be Smith and likely Celebrini as well). It also makes it harder to move him out if we get an option to make a trade for a comparably-skilled defenseman.
