Average NHL player making average NHL player money for another three years.
I think what people aren't seeing is that he's making only a 350k increase from what he's making right now. I'm not too familiar with Vegas' defensive depth but I'd wager this signing has more to do with keeping a familiar senior defensive group together rather than overpaying for a free agent who wouldn't give them more than what McNabb provides.
There are other ways to solve their cap issues; moving one of their wingers is going to be a priority if they actually want to ice 20 players next season. I don't think re-signing McNabb hurts them in the long run provided they have a smart offseason.
