The ability to lock up players to long term 7-8 year deals with a more realistic AAV cap hit deal. Yes star players want to get paid. But they also want to win and rarely leave their team empty. Right now the only way to lock up your franchise players is to pay them 15mil a year and even that usually only gets you 6 years. I am sick of having to renegotiate a contract with my franchise players every 3 or 4 years. That is not very realistic at all. Let me sign him to an 8 year deal and be done with it. Look no further than Stamkos and Hedmen who both signed 8 year deals in the 8Mil range because they wanted to be in Tampa, wanted to get paid, but also want to win.
