I didn't realize Colby only had one arb year left
He got $4.675M for this year on a one year deal with the club and avoided arbitrtation
Do they do a similar offer this year? Would he decline it? He might get a bit more in arbitration
Maybe going 2 years @ 5M per, plus an option makes sense for both sides. Cause no way they offer him much more than that, and no way they make him a qualifying offer next year so he might just take it. It would make him comfortable that he won't be non-tendered, won't break the bank, and keeps him tradeable too.
