Don’t read it the same way that you do.
For SPCs signed after the date of this agreement, if the minimum Paragraph 1 NHL Salary portion of a Player’s Qualifying Offer would otherwise be greater than 120% of the Averaged Amount of the SPC, the minimum Paragraph 1 NHL Salary portion of the Qualifying Offer will instead be 120% of the Averaged Amount.
For example, if a Player has a 3 year SPC with Paragraph 1 NHL Salaries of $3.0 million in Year 1, $6.0 million in Year 2, and $9.0 million in Year 3, the minimum Paragraph 1 NHL Salary portion of the Qualifying Offer will be $7.2 million. If, however, such Player’s 3 year SPC had Paragraph 1 NHL Salaries of $5.0 million in Year 1, $6.0 million in Year 2, and $7.0 million in Year 3, the minimum Paragraph 1 NHL Salary portion of the Qualifying Offer will be $7.0 million.
EDIT: nvm not worth it
I realized I'm too tired tonight to go further with it. Oh well.There's plenty of fish in the sea, Man.
I know right! I’m happy asf. He could have EASILY pointed to last year and said, remember when I took under a mil to stay? And anyone who says he had no leverage can f*** off. He deserved a lot more last year, but took a huge discount. And as someone else mentioned, he became the best bargain contract in the NHL.f***ing psyched awesome deal. Great job ADA surely would have gotten more. Not being greedy and a good deal for the team too. Can’t wait for more ADA Panarin magic
Bottom line is this dude is the ultimate team player, and the fact that he continues to take big discounts proves that. The Twitter losers are gonna hate this haha @EdJovanovskiI know right!

And 4.8 mil for a 60-65 point defenseman (possibly 70-75 points at his peak imo) is still a crazy good bargain.
I want to seeHopefully they actually do try him on the left side this year to see what he does there
Exactly my thinking. He’s a team player and a bro. I’m not a fan of Strome, but if ADA wants him around, I want him around.Maybe he left some money on the table for Strome?
I only don't like this because he can be a UFA after the deal is done. I was hoping for a 1 year deal or a 4-5 year deal. Oh well. Still very tradeable next summer.
Well, not only is ADA part of that talent, but he’s the most talented defenseman we have and will probably have for a long time (though for best defenseman, it’s a toss-up between ADA and Fox imo). But I see what you’re saying.Great contract. I’m a big Tony D fan but with all the defensive talent we have coming up who knows what the future holds. But in the meantime I’m glad he is back and the cap hit is very reasonable
He was like the second player to make a statement in defense of him after the Zoom incident and were D partners all camp long before the bubble, but can't let facts get in the way of a narrativeIt really pisses me off because you can tell these people either don’t do their own research and just repeat what they hear, or are complete morons.
Poor K’Andre? Really? Do they expect Tony to commit hate crimes against this dude?
