Always risky to give these contracts to pure offensive defensemen. If Fox loses his offensive production for any reason it becomes a brutal contract very quickly.

The thing is this could have been a 2 year contract at $11 million and you could still the same thing.

Just a relief to get a top player locked in, extra benefit to have it know it will not be a crippling anchor contract.

Seth Jones says maybe don't say that part out loud :laugh:
 
Its nuts to think that Erik Karlsson still makes exactly $2m/yr more than Fox's very healthy 9.5m annual salary.

:help:

Im not even sure what he could have done to live up to this contract in retrospect. Win the art ross?
 
So like what if this season didn't start where Fox is still carrying the team? I mean, maybe...? Maybe the contract backfires. You could say that about most big contracts.
Most franchise-player contracts come after more than TWO years of pro experience.
 
This is a steal. He took a discount for sure. I could definitely see a team paying up 4 1sts and offer sheeting him at 12 mil + on the open market fairly easily if they hadn't have got this contract done.
