Renowned insider David Pagnotta has just revealed the surprising price to pay if Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens want to keep Mike Matheson.
Matheson is off to a terrific start this season, and while he wants to stay with the Canadiens organization, he also wants to secure his long-term future.
"They are going back and forth on that; I think a lot of it's gonna depend on term, more so than dollars"

According to Pierre Lebrun, Matheson is looking to secure at least 4-5 years for it to make sense for him.

Pagnotta has now provided more concrete figures.
Here's what he said about it:
David Pagnotta: Re Mike Matheson negotiations: "I could see that being in that $6.25 to $7m dollar range on a three year term." - Hello Hockey
That really seems to be the true price tag!
We can't overlook how vital he's been to the team's success this season - and really, over the past few years as well. Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton are surely well aware of that.
So, here's the real question:
At $6 or $7 million per year for three seasons, would you immediately re-sign Mike Matheson in Montreal?
This will definitely be a situation to monitor closely over the next few days, especially now that we know it's a top priority for Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton.
