6mill? So what your saying is: Timonen, phaneuf, redden, boyle, bouwmeester and campbell (who all earn more than 6M) are better than Weber?

I thought 7.5M was fair considering the fact Weber is just 26, hasn't reached his full potential in his career and was a top 3 candidate for the Norris.

Weber/his agent thought he was worth 8M, not the arbitrator. The Preds offered 4.5M which was smart on their end, hoping the arbitrator would choose between 4.5 and 8M, ending up with 7.5M.
