Eichel and McDavid signed deals that at the time, would have been considered overpayment. McDavid's pace to the time that he signed the deal would have been an average of 100 points, so there is an expectation to continue to perform better.
Same deal with Eichel's contract, based on the $1M per 10 points, should be about $2.0 M lower based on what he has done.
That's why I am saying that you pay for what you project them to be, and why, Jamieh, you are arguing against the idea that Keller does improve performance, and it makes zero sense to do so. Go on other boards and tell them how bad of a deal they made because they gave a little more now. There is a bet on the player to get better than what he is over the course of a long-term deal.
This is not anything new, but it is acceptable when other teams do so, like the Eichel and McDavid examples above, but totally unacceptable for the Coyotes?
