Quoting: Koskinen_The_Great
Boeser isnt worth close to a 2nd making 7M AAV for a 18 goal scorer with bad skating and term that guy is delusional
Although, I agree that Boeser is not worth his current contract (6.650 million, NOT 7 million), it is important to keep in mind various points of context. For starters, Boeser had the lowest avg time on ice of his career this season and was nearly a full minute lower than his career average. Additionally, Boeser's shooting percentage was down nearly 2% from his career average. However, the biggest impact is likely on the powerplay, where Kuzmenko has moved him off the top unit. Boeser's power play time on ice to finish the season was roughly 2.52 per game, down from 3.05 last season and 3.39 the year before.
Essentially, this is all to say that Boeser still managed 55 points in a career low year in a number of offensive categories. While nothing is guaranteed, it would not be surprising in the least if Boeser posted better numbers next year.
For the sake of comparison, Armia avg ice time this season was higher than his career norm (14.57 this season, 14.30 career). His shooting percentage was higher than his career norm (10.1 this season, 9.1 career). Finally, both his power play time on ice and short handed time on ice were up from last year (0.48 pp and 1.25 shorthanded). In this instance, its probably fair to say if any of these regress to career norms/below career norms your probably looking at a hit in overall production (which was already only 14 points in 43 games)
