Streit is 32 . . . which makes my "under 34" cut. Iginla and Datsyuk also are young enough in my book.
Defencemen tend to peak a bit later than offensive forwards, and I feel Streit is just entering his prime years. He should ride into year 5, age 37, still producing and playing at close to this high level. There will be a drop off as he gets into the next few years, but again - not the serious drop-off that forwards usually get.
7 years is a long time, and past the contract expiry, you can never really know if the player will re-sign or not (I would not go past 7 years, even for my franchise player).

Had no idea Streit was that old. Thought he was around 28?
Slozo....if this "fantasy draft" said: Pick three guys who YOU ONLY GET FOR THE NEXT 5 YEARS, then Iggy and Datsyuk would be my boys! Goalie? Hmmm, that'd be tough. I said Cam Ward in the original, but if for only the next 5 years, i'd prob go Luongo. Took Ward due to age in the original.... |
