From Supermatt18:
Brouwer was an utter and complete anchor on Bennett's line, reducing bennett's production and apparent value.
When i look at this stat, my mind thinks Bennett will be getting more than $3 Million a year. |
As with all statistics there are appropriate CONTEXTS in which they ought to be viewed. In this case Brouwer's injury should be a major factor in assessing the value of the cumulative numbers.
In short, I don't believe Brouwer will factor in at all in Bennett's contract negotiation, because the dramatic difference in how they both played prior to and after his hand injury obscures the whole picture.
Bennett's number on a bridge deal will be in the range of $2.5 m, and this figure has nothing to do with Troy Brouwer.
