And Frolik signed his deal four years ago when the cap was 10 million $ lower. IMO that contract was bad from the start both in term and dollars.

Traditionally its' been pretty close to $1M per 10 points on the UFA front for the most part - consistency is part of that too though.
Connolly may have had 44 points last year but he had 27 the year before that - so average that out and it's $3.4M.
Last year was a bit different too because of the cap crunch and the changing dynamics of free agency. Less money in the mid-tier, and more being spent on the high end RFAs.
