That's not what I think he's worth, that's what it'll take for NSH to move him. They want a lot for him. Also if you wouldn't give that up for McDavid or Makar then your literally insane. Nemec won't become a makar and Mercer wouldn't even come close to McDavid. I'm confident most people would think that trade would be a steal for McDavid
McDavid costs 37.5 million dollars over the next 3 years.
Let’s value a 1st at 5 million for maths sake.
Now let’s project some contracts
Mercer on a 4 year deal would likely cost about 4 mill.
So 17 mill total on him for the next 5 years.
Nemec on a 4 year bridge will cost around 6 mill I’d expect.
So around 27 mill for the next 7 years.
I’d expect Mercer to provide about 7 mill AAV in value over that time. (Top 6 forward). That’s 35 mill in value.
I’d expect Nemec to provide about 9 mill AAV in value over that time. 63 million there.
That is 108 mill in total value, about 44 mill in cost.
64 million dollars in surplus value.
So mcdavid at 37.5 mill would have to provide 101.5 million dollars in value over 3 years.
Do you think Connor Mcdavid is worth 34 million dollars?
