No, but I question whether we'll get any sort of cap break like we got from Richard and Carter (especially from Carter) at various points. Carter did the Flyers a huge solid when he signed that 3 year contract, and then signed for a much smaller cap hit than he would have gotten on the open market for his current deal. If I'm Curran, I advise against any client of mine signing with Paul Holmgren to those types of deals... and I'm sure every other agent paid close attention as well.
