To further explain the Brodie vs Klefbom comparison, here are their numbers for their first 3 years:
Brodie: 104 Games, 4G, 24A, 28P
Klefbom: 77 Games, 3G, 20A, 23P
Brodie signed a 2 x $2.125M deal (that is what SHOULD happen)
Then, Brodie's game absolutely soared and he became a top pairing Dman (best case scenario) so he got a 5 x $4.65M deal.
Total value over 7 years of $27.5M
Oilers HOPE Klefbom becomes half the player Brodie is. And he is already being paid more.
