Is it just me or do offers for FA are too high

I was just wondering if it was just me I heard that high star players values have been adjusted so they get higher offers but im experiencing lower level players asking for too much like some 6.5-7.0 players asking for over 4 to 5 mil a year.

typically in todays nhl, the free agents are all asking for too much money. In most cases a free agent gets overpaid. Ville Leino, David Clarkson, tyler bozak to name a few. Useful 3rd line players but paid like star players. If you want a free agent in todays game, you must overpay and it should be no different in FHM.

That's actually a really good point. With all the big stars being locked up on long term deals over the last few years the FA crop has been weak so the 2nd-3rd line players that do make to FA status get paid because there is no one better to pay.
