ridiculous #…..the boy hasn't won a thing!!!
One of the best that has scored 100 points 1 year of 5 in his career???? Give me a break. He’s not $2.5 a year better than Leon.
Disagree…absolutely negotiating against other teams in a UFA market.
If your salary is the same…you’ll play in NY or LA…so they have no choice but to over pay…it’s the only way he signs NOW.
and,and,and,and,and …)))
