M8 what's the deal with you always insisting on signing Yegor to that 6 x 4.85 million contract? Did you get that from Evolving Hockey or smthn?
Evolving Hockey has projected: Term, AAV (probability)
1 year, $4,546,000 (7%)
2 years, $3,709,000 (17%)
3 years, $4,211,000 (14%)
4 years, $4,693,000 (23%)
5 years, $4,937,000 (19%)
6 years, $5,754,000 (14%)
7 years, $5,940,000 (6%)
8 years, $6,737,000 (1%)
A 4-year deal takes him right to his UFA season, so I added two years to average AAV.
Maybe he signs a 2-year bridge deal, but I think he is worth locking up at lower amount.
