Unfortunately i think he will get overpaid and the contract may be three years, maybe four. In a way, it’s good for both Nylander and the Rangers since it’s best to keep chemistry when you have it working so well, but i will not like this contract, at all.

My offer is 5 bucks, dispersed over 2 years.
Take it or leave it?

Nylander was a semi-journeyman player before finding a home with the Rangers. He's in a great fit on a great team with a legitimate shot next year.

I think it would be in his best interest to find a middle ground with the Rangers and continue to play alongside Jagr.

He should be paid, no question, but I don't think he's in line for a $5M per year deal. I think somewhere around $4M-$4.25M is about right.
