Interesting deal. Being a small player approaching 30 you might think he could decline in a hurry but he's been more consistent than I thought. I don't think he's going to be a regular 35 goal scorer but is a chippy, 25 goal 55 point guy worth 6 million per? I guess so.

He could also flame out like Tucker did around 34... but who knows...
