10.5/81.5 = 12.88%

Assuming the cap goes up to 92M next year, Shesterkin's floor would be 11.85m

Thanks, couldn’t remember what the cap was at when he signed it.

Can’t say I’d feel good about that if u were rooting for the Rangers. There were some years of “you couldn’t move that contract if you tried” with Bob.

It will be very interesting to see which side caves.

That's an insane contract to reject - he better hope he doesn't have a down year
Also how does Weekes always find these ridiculous places to report from :laugh:
Probably just has a bunch pre-recorded lol. Anytime he goes somewhere he probably just makes a few Breaking News vids.

Insane contract to turn down though. Wonder what he wants.

How can you have that high of an AAV for a guy who sits on the bench for 30 games?????
That's like asking how can Baseball teams commit a huge chunk of their payroll to starters that only pitch one out of every five games. Or how can NFL teams commit big cap dollars to a Quarterback that only plays half the game.

Because they disproportionately affect winning in the games they do participate in.

This is like the opposite of Cam Neely dropping $64M reasons and similarly it's gonna end up being 8x$11.5M
