The big unknown with them is how they'll play if they get separated. It's never happened, ever. If they want to stay together, they're going to have to take a lower salary, otherwise, it's splitsville.

what happens if a teams offers one of them 7M, but the other nothing? Or if all the offers are like that?

Then JP is gonna have to sell that idea to them. They've always been a package but I think those days are over...

I too am seeking a 6-7 million dollar per year deal from my next employer. This is about as likely to happen as the Sedins getting that sort of money. They're just not that good.

well lets examine... 80 points each per year for those guys. i think 6 million dollars might see some takers. what about atlanta? especialy if they lose kovalchuk. maybe they can get them to agree to 11 for both? lets say to a 3-4 year contract till their other players get to ask for more. the NTC means for them that they won't be split.

I'd be VERY interested to see their results if they split up.

It will be like that scene in "Strange Brew" when Bob and Doug were separated for the first time... ever. Ahhh... what a great movie.
