3.25M will be better on the latter part of an 8-year contract when Montreal looks to keep talent on the roster. Shorttermsavings mean nothing.8 years a bit long for me , let's not forget that we have 1 of the wors d-squad of the league.
I agree that JackEye can play as a 5-6 th dman there is no doubt but 8 years for that kind of gameplay idk even if the money isnt too harsh.
Id perhaps go for 4 years at 3.25m (max) . He's easier to trade if things change in he future
Xhekaj will be a playoff warrior. Montreal won't be contending until 2027-2028, when both Gallagher and Anderson are off the books.
Money saved on Xhekaj, along with those two Cap hits off the books will be important regarding the quality of the roster when we are actually contending.
Xhekaj would cost less than Chiarot did for us, as an example, and Xhekaj will have as much of an impact as Chiarot did, at the least.
