Stone's AAV would would be lower with added years .... no team wants to guarantee large sums of money to future 34 year old's.

Marner is different (opposite) because he's 21.

It's a whole lot of money for one of the best wingers in the game. Fair deal.

H-E double hockey sticks?

I'm interested in what's gonna happen w/ Erik Karlsson more than anyone else at this point. I'm just not sure I see the value for SJS. Should they really pay him $10M+ AAV for the max term? They already have Burns running the PP and playing big minutes. They'd be much better suited going after Panarin, in my opinion.

It's a good contract for another 4-5 years but NOT after that. Too overpaid. I like the player but he NAILED it longterm for himself.

So a guy who scores 25ish goals per season, has 62ish points per season gets 9.5 mil. Yes this year he plays better cause it is was his final contract year. There is a bunch of players who do that. I mean it is too much money. He is not THAT good. Is he good as Kucherov or McDavid? How much will Rantannen get? 13M? Marner should get 15.9M then. This is becoming a little crazy. Why will Tampa be SC winner or at least a returning finalist in the next few years. They have players who agreed to play for a little less than they could get on a free market. Toronto will be in big cap trouble very soon as well as Vegas. I say it is all Tavares and Dubas fault - they started this madness.
