If Toews does 5 years, it's going to come in much closer to $10M than $7M; it's practically guaranteed he's going to be paid $50M+ on his next deal, one way or another. I still think all these gymnastics to keep Toews are unnecessary; they have too many big-time guys they need to re-sign soon and they're going to want a lot of money. With the good UFA crop next summer, it is entirely possible to build a very good but affordable corps around Makar, Byram and Girard and still improve up front and in their depth which they need to do if they're going to be legit contenders. Can't do that if Toews is taking up $8-10M in cap.
