I bet someone will offer him 9.5-10 mil. But 4-5 mil/yr is a slap in the face for that guy when elsewhere he can command double that. If you offer hin 4-5 then why are you even offering him anything at all? If he takes the 7.5 you know Malone is gone and maybe Orpik. One good thing is Geno said he would sign for less than Sid when he can get over 10 mil. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-08-09-penguins-thread/197996)._
