Are you trying to compare those defensemen and goaltender to a top 6 center? I see how the market went this year, it decreases all the way down to Kane and Schenn. They got straight up, market value on the year. I don't see your mathematical argument at all. When in context, the deal is perfectly acceptable for a 2009 top 5 pick. Does it really bother you that Schenn is getting $40k more in bonuses over Kane?
