Well, since Mayfield is going to be 37 years old when his contract is up, and he's making near $3.5m per year, as a third pairing guy that age, I'm not convinced the Sabres would want him. It's a lot of years to commit to. Furthermore, Pageau at near $5m per year is too much for the Sabres to spend on their 3rd line center, in my opinion, unless it's a younger one who is emerging.. They have Mittelstadt, Dahlin, Power and Luukkonen all needing new contracts, which will take up a hefty chunk of cap space, and I do think they should try and include Mittelstadt in the long-term plan. I'd pay him $5m per season before Pageau, I'm buying high on last year's performance. Especially with Quinn out to start, he could be allocated some extra ice time depending on game situations.
Anyway, too much money I think in those two guys Pageau and Mayfield to be worth it with all of the raises they have to give not just for next season but the next few after too to some others.
