I can see Howard taking a little bit of a home town discount, but I doubt he'll let himself get rooked. I'd be very surprised if he gets less than $4mil a season from Holland. Otherwise he's a goner and the Wings can try to go through next season will Gustavsson and your choice between: Dan Ellis, Jose Theodore, Nikolai Khabibulin Peter Budaj, Evgeni Nabokov, Chris Mason, Mathieu Garon or Joey MacDonald (among others) if they can't lure Smith or Backstrom from their respective clubs...

"A source told MLive.com that the sides are inching closer to agreeing on a deal that would more than double Howard's current $2.25 million salary to the $5 million-a-year range. It is expected to be for at least six or seven years."

Ken Holland, genius at work. What a farce.
