There was no risk of Barkov leaving. Huberdeau (as noted in the article) is the guy I can see leaving in 2 years.

I think Aleksander Barkov gets the Brayden Point deal, 8 x $9,500,000 that would be a great deal for him and the Panthers.

I think that's probably as low as it will go. I feel like the its more likely he gets 11 mil x 8 or more given that its all UFA years and Florida doesn't have the Cup winning culture. Even that might be low given what he might be able to get on the open market.

Would be leaving a lot of money on the table. No reason to sign for any less than 11x8.
Yes there is. No income tax so he can take that and make more than a lot of people with higher caphits.

Plus if he takes less, they can use the money to build a stronger team.

It's called not being a greedy asshole.

Let's say he takes 10x8 it's still 8 million less overall than 11x8. Crazy amount of money.
