200k more than I thought he'd get but that second year could be good value. Not gonna quibble over 200k.
Didnt get get a 200k raise?
His cap hit went from 700k to 1m. Didn't think it'd go up that much.
51 games of not looking like an NHL player.He played 51 games in nhl last year. He wasant gonna agree to a 100k raise
Seems like an overpayment for our 7th Dman who didn't see the ice in the playoffs
Zero issue with this deal. Locks up a young talent and makes him easy to move if needed at least from my perspective.

What leverage did he have? Threatening to hold out or play in Europe? He wasn't arbitration eligible, and even if he was, arbitration wasn't likely to be kind to him.He wasn't going to take a 100k pay raise, he was already making 700k

Ben Harpur is the same draft class as Bowey, with 52 NHL GP and just signed a 2 x $725K deal
Jake Dotchin is a year older than Bowey, but had a fairly similar year (if not slightly better) and is on a 2 x $812K deal
Joel Edmundson was coming off a season with 67 regular season games and 16 playoff games when he signed his 2 x $1.05M deal with St. Louis.
I guess we'll see what the deals for guys like Hagg, Santini, and Weegar end up being, but right now this seems like they're paying for the 2nd year of the deal and his draft position more than anything he's accomplish on NHL ice to date.
Pretty unlikely he hit his bonuses.actually i was wrong. bowey was making 902k last few years but the cap hit was 700k. so he had to go up, he went up 98k
That $902K value is with full performance bonuses. His base salary last season was $750K, and he didn't even get all of it because he spent a chunk of the year in the AHL making $70K.actually i was wrong. bowey was making 902k last few years but the cap hit was 700k. so he had to go up, he went up 98k
