Kucherovs includes RFA Years, wildly different scenario.I want Seguin signed as much as anyone, but this summer Kucherov signed an 8x$9.5 deal in a no-tax state, while scoring more points in the last 2 seasons and being one year younger, so maybe let's pump the brakes on overpaying Seguin too quickly?
8x$10 is fair, more than that and Seguin is just being greedy, especially considering that age-based stats tells us that this last season was probably his peak and he will be more likely than not to decline from here on out.
TB is also a perennial Contender, so it would make sense for him to take a discount.
Seguin has no RFA years to buy out, and Dallas isn't/hasn't been anywhere close to contending for his tenure
