I'd definitely offer Duchene 8M for 7 years, but as some point out, I doubt it would be enough to get him. It's a myth, outside of less than a handful of US markets, that star players (because of the team's willingness to structure contracts appropriately) will pay more taxes by playing in Quebec. I don't believe that the mark-up, if there is one, for playing in Montreal, would be based on this. Perhaps the pressure in Montreal could well warrant the extra little bit of cash, though.
