I don't even know where to begin figuring out this contract. This may be a messy one. He broke out last season that was an abbreviated one, and then took another big step in this even shorter season. I would categorize his 5on5 production as elite-level. Plus he has strong underlying metrics. One would assume his next contract would probably start with a 5, or even a 6 on a multi-year deal.


However, even prorating his production, he doesn't crack 30 goals and 60 points. Does that get him a 6x6? 6x7? I think 7 is definitely too high. 6 seems high considering his point production.



I think you can safely include him as part of this team's core, however. Just have no idea what his actual worth is. I also wonder how good he will become - will he take another step next season? I would bet on yes watching him play and develop on this team.
