Lots of chatter about potential offer sheets with a few teams in/near cap hell.
Friedman reports
The NHL/NHLPA released some of its key off-season dates and information to teams and agents in the last week. The interview period for unrestricted free agents begins at 12:01 a.m. ET on June 23, and restricted free agents can be contacted three days later. The average salary for 2018-19 was $3,244,126 — a 4.14 per cent increase over 2017-18. No team can walk away from a salary arbitration award lower than $4,397,832. I know, I know: what you all want to see are the offer sheet compensation figures, so here they are (don’t forget that any term longer than five years sees the AAV divided by five — not six or seven):
Offer Sheet (AAV) Compensation
$1,395,053 or below None
Over $1,395,053 to $2,113,716 3rd round pick
Over $2,113,716 to $4,227,437 2nd round pick
Over $4,227,437 to $6,341,152 1st, 3rd round picks
Over $6,341,152 to $8,454,871 1st, 2nd, 3rd round picks
Over $8,454,871 to $10,568,589 (2) 1st, 2nd, 3rd round picks
Over $10,568,589 (4) 1st round picks
