Yes that's my understanding from the latest CBA. It might even be 2 guys, don't remember offhand.

Interesting. Considering the impending cap charge, I was expecting them to backload the contract not frontload it. You can always backload a contract, so this would mean the Skins chose to frontload it. Seems to suggest the Skins are really not afraid of this cap charge BS. Or maybe they think they can delay it until 2013, so they want to bank a lot of $ in 2012 to soften the blow next year.
