You wouldn't give a 22 year old center under 5m for 6 years? What should they do give him 3.33 for 2 years and then break bank at 6-7m if he progresses like Johnson and Palat did after their bridge deals? Great deal by Talon.
And actually no, Killorn is on par with Stamkos is playoff career, the only reason he "seems" better is because his expectations are much lower, don't confuse that with actual performance. Thing with Stamkos vs Killorn is that clearly Stamkos has 2-3 more gears to step it up in the playoffs while a Killorn at his best is playing at the level of a sub-par Stamkos.
some comparables would you give them six years almost 5 million?
jt miller? david desharnais? i just see nothing special myself. He had one ok year hes not shown he is worth this kind of money. Or guys like conacher would get deals like this and how did that turn out? 3rd round draft pick his faceoffs are not great ...
if vladdy goes out and puts up sixty this year im still not giving him this contract he has to do it consistently a couple times etc.
brian little signed 2nd contract after putting up one year of 50 points got 2,300,000 primarily
3 years later after scoring right there around 50 4 of 5 years he got a deal at 4.7 trochecks numbers. for 5 years total.
I am used to progressions like that. Salaries with a little more thought a little more prove it to me
Not saying its even comparable to deal but still its jumping the gun to me bigtime
Is deals every year worse a lot worse to be fair. I am just glad stevie is running things so dont have this insanity. I mean nielsen to wings? that was too much years to me.
I dont want stevie to give everyone eight years. Etc.. Drouin is only guy im ok paying early they decided on doing that with vasy so will live with it and understand it not that I fully agree
