This probably isnt too surprising. Either way, good to see him back another year.

I saw on The Score that he will make 6.75 million next year.

Yeah this is a great signing for hockey in general. Sakic is a class act and a great player.
Maybe he saw the Yzerman vs. Sakic thread and wanted to break Stevie Y's numbers

I read the deal was worth $6.75 mil, a million more than what he made last season.

Although its 6.75 he still had a great year this year. He hasn't really shown any signs of slowing down.

I hope the Leafs extend/re-sign Sundin so they will suck that much longer
