When I first saw this contract I thought "woooooah" But now that I thought about it more, it seems more sensible.
As others have stated, Kopitar is one of the best 2 way players in the league. His points arenīt gaudy, but are high enough when you consider the other sides of his game.
As for this contract running till he is 36, since his game isnīt predicated on speed I could still see him being a very effective player till his mid to late 30īs.
