He also only scored 1 point in the playoffs, but let’s focus only on those 20 games where he actually played decently and ignore the rest.
His last 3 playoffs combined he has 6 points in 31 games.
No one should take away those great playoff years, but they are 4 years ago now.
It's almost like he's making 2.75 million a year and not 5 million like every borderline scoring forward with a pulse these days.
He's got better pedigree than Roussel, Beagle, Komarov all of whom signed higher money contracts when the cap was lower. His PK/indirect offensive contributions via disruption of opposing teams/taking hard minutes/tilting the ice are worth 3 mil easily
Reminds me of all the shitting on Orpik contract 5 years ago which in hindsight was one of the best UFA signings we've ever made
