What has Subban accomplished relative to his peers that makes him worth 5+ mill?
Doughty was a norris finalist and olympic gold medal winner, 7
Karlsson won the norris, 6.5
Myers won the calder, 5.5
In no way does he have the credentials to command that kind of salary on his 2nd contract!
He's definitely more in the range of:
Carlson, 4
Hedman, 4
Staal, 4
Del Zotto, 2.5
You could make an argument that his value is higher than the above guys so lets say 4-4.5.
But to go out and publicly say you're worth more than 5 mill and refuse to negotiate like the rest of the core of your team (Price Gorges Pacio) is downright greedy.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE PK. But if this is how the negotiation is going to go, making a good trade is a logical solution. Unfortunately there isn't a young stud Dman available out there so a young stud forward will have to do.
