I am willing to bet you're right about the 8 x 8 deal. I'm thinking he will probably get just north of 8 and something like this for protections.
NMC for first 4-5 years
16 team no trade list for year 6, 12 team no trade list for year 7, 10 team no trade list for year 8.

I'm perfectly fine with it. He's 25-26? Not even in his prime and has shown what he is capable of. Let Shesterkin pork the Rangers for a god awful contract, combine that with cap rising it will be a bargain.
I also don't give 2 poops if he makes more than McAvoy(which seems to be the team's issue). Unfortunately McAvoy is not what we all thought and hoped. Absolutely a top pairing or top 4 D. He is not and never will be a true #1D or a Norris winner.
