Subban should get no more then 3 - 3.5 mil per for two seasons.
Sorry but this is laughable. PK not bet then MKZ

Not to insult you but...You need to re-read the post.
I never said PK wasn't better the MDZ, I asked how much better and in my eye's he's not 4 millin dollars better then what MDZ got which is 2.55 per year.
Subban is not Duncan Keith, Shea Weber or Drew Doughty good tus he deserves significantly les then them and like others before him two year deal is plenty leading up to one more RFA contract before becoming UFA.
7 million Two years and 3.5 cap hit is plenty for Subban.
I may stretch it out to 8 mil but that would be the absolute max.
Meehan also represents MDZ so this will be interesting......

Dude, normally when you're out to lunch you offer to pick something up for the rest of us...
Last thing we should be doing is dealing away picks. Vets? Sure. Picks no.
We should learn from the Leafs mistakes. Dealing away 1sts is a dumb thing to do. Even if Benn is wicked, no sense dealing away picks. Markov, Plekanec, Cole... those guys are okay to trade away but keep the picks.
Look at the Leafs, they got a top ten scorer last year and the deal is still considered a disaster. I've seen that movie before and I don't like Horror shows. No thanks.
If the Stars want to deal away Benn (they won't) that's fine. They can have all the vets they want and they can have Leblanc (don't know why they'd want him) but no picks....

Seems to me those quotes are about Gomez.
And talk about talking a lot but saying little of substance.

I have no problem dealing a 1st for a proven commodity like Benn. You'd hope that a 1st could turn into a Benn after a few years after he's drafted. Benn is that, now.

Subban's Agent, Don Meehan is based out here in Southern California, and also represents Drew Doughty, the Kings great D-Man. Don has a VERY good relationship with the Kings well-respected Hockey Writer, Helene Elliott.
And Helene has said she THINKS they are looking for "Doughty money" about $7 Million a Year, 7 or 8 Years, for PK.
I think he's one contract away from getting the big, multi-year, $7+ million dollar contract. At $5 million or $5.5 million, over 3-4 years, that would be the most I see Bergevin going for. At least now with Gomez's money off the books next season, it will be less of a bitter pill to swallow.

If it' the case, then we won't see PK this Winter.
But it doesn't make much sense. Just another sick rumor.
Bobby Mac earlier on SportsCenter (TSN) made it seem like the main problem is length, with PK looking for a really long term and the Habs looking for a 2 year deal.
