Leon is not doing it like Maroon did that one year where he cleaned up the garbage from McDavid, he is doing some INSANE things and is right there with McDavid play wise.

I actually agree with this. I think 29 gets a lot of unwarranted criticism here because of the way he plays. He is a methodical play maker - He doesn't look like he skates as hard as he can every second of every play. In Edmonton that's a recipe for a bulls eye on your back. I still think the comparison to a guy like Thornton is a good one - but Leon is a better goal scorer. Fantastic player and odds are only going to get better for the next few years.
I'm ok with his contract and I don't see it as a huge overpay for what he brings.
That said, I'm convinced the team butchered the signings of him and Mcdavid. If they would have signed 29 first they could have had him for ~7 and 97 for ~10.5. When they set the bar with McDavid first they gifted him the most obvious comparable in his own dressing room. 29 was never going to consider a salary that was half of what 97 got a month earlier.

NO disrespect what so ever man but I think you dreaming if you think McDavid was getting 10.5 mill. Would I have loved it, absolutely? But McDavid took exactly the same percentage of the cap as Crosby did when he signed. Coincidence? Not a chance.
