Speculation: Maxim Tsyplakov’s Next Contract

[impaaaaaact]

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?

He is a keeper. Hits anything that moves and has Good Hands.
3 for 3 mil. is not a bad place for either side.

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.

8 x $5M?

[somebody had to do it]

Thanks for starting this post. i was thinking about the same thing over the weekend about what a contract extension could look like.

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.

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.

Plus, as noted above, isles need to ‘lower’ the Palms cap hit going forward. So, they have extra money around.

Wouldn’t even hate it. But I’m a sucker.

Barbashev is a great comp. I’ll check later when I’m home age/stats

Barbashev was a 23 year old RFA… Tsyplakov will be a 27 year old UFA. maybe 3x3 is too low…

 

[IslesNorway]

3x3 is about right. Isles need be careful not dishing out long contracts.

Can we get Max this hoodie?

 

[NYI365]

3x3 seems low. I think 4x4, 4x 4.5 is where this goes if he hits 50 points

 

[SCMURRAY]

On pace for almost 50. Id love to get him in at 4x4 but with the cap going up maybe more like 4x5
