Looks like we got a good one here. On pace for 50ish points and leading the team in hits. Imagine if we had a functional power play!
Anyway, what are we thinking here? 3x3 sound right?

The reason I started it is because I think it means that if we want to sign him, Romanov and Dobson then there’s not really a shot at bringing back Nelson or Palmieri to begin with. AND it means we won’t have money to add in FA, so those slots will need to be filled internally… likely by eiserman and someone else. but that’s all for another thread.Thanks for starting this post. i was thinking about the same thing over the weekend about what a contract extension could look like.
Barbashev got 5/25, before that he was on 3/6.75. He seems like he’s somewhere in the middle there based on where he’s going. I would agree with your number.I was thinking 4x4. Sets him up for his big pay day at 29? 50 points will net you above three even without term IMO.
Wouldn’t even hate it. But I’m a sucker.8 x $5M?

Barbashev is a great comp. I’ll check later when I’m home age/statsBarbashev got 5/25, before that he was on 3/6.75. He seems like he’s somewhere in the middle there based on where he’s going. I would agree with your number.
Plus, as noted above, isles need to ‘lower’ the Palms cap hit going forward. So, they have extra money around.
Barbashev was a 23 year old RFA… Tsyplakov will be a 27 year old UFA. maybe 3x3 is too low…Wouldn’t even hate it. But I’m a sucker.

And he got traded not too long after bc of being overpaid.Kuzmenko got 5.5x2 after putting up almost a ppg his rookie season at the same age. If I had to project I'd say 4x4 or 3x3 if he wants to bet on himself a little bit.
