McAvoy and Werenski were also signing deals straight out of their ELCs. Nurse's first bridge contract was $3.2 x 2.
Cody Ceci got $4.3 million after 17/18. Trouba also got $5.5 million from arbitration in that offseason.
Stat lines from that season:
Ceci 82 games 5 goals, 14 assists, 19 points. -27
Trouba 55 3-21 24 points. +9
That was two years ago as well, and we have seen a big jump in contract size in the last couple of seasons.
