A real jerk thing
Sounds more like a sex toy catalog to me....
Well, like any good European train station bar...

I like Horny, but lets not get too carried away with blank checks and max term here. Horny could turn into Okposo or Ladd pretty easily. Horny is in a good spot here and he knows that.
25 mil for 5 years
22 mil for 4 years
20 mil for 3 years
Offering him 4.5 or 4.75 is a complete joke, and seems like a good way to ensure he tests free agency.Ultimately, Hornqvist realizes that a slight raise with term much like how Kunitz re-signed is beneficial for both parties to be able to handle upcoming contracts that need re-signed. Murray, Guentzel, Rust and so on.
He makes 4.250 now, so it would be beneficial for both parties to leave wiggle room like 4.750(19.0)/4.850(19.4) for a 4 year term. Longer term drops the cap hit down and shouldn't go below 4.5 per for a 5/6 year term.
That's what I'd be looking for. If he wants paid big money they simply cannot do that unless it's 3 years or less.
