Thread: Working around NMCs with Robo Max Extension
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheMooterus</b></div><div>From the Stars perspective it makes much more sense to sign him to a 3-year deal. It essentially guarantees 11 more years of contract control on Robertson, by making him an RFA when the 3-year deal expires. Sure, an 8-year isn't the worst thing in the world for the Stars this offseason, but the absolute best option is a 3-4 year deal, allowing Dallas to then sign him to his 8-year contract after it expires.

Same goes for Oettinger. Sign him until he's 25-26 years old &amp; then maximize his contract.</div></div>

I did that in a previous post, giving Robo 3 years. 8 years is a thought for him though because in 3 years contract amounts could be much higher especially if he keeps up his production. With 8 years, he's 30 when his big contract is up. Not saying he will regress in his mid-30's, but that's what we have currently with Benn and Seguin.
