Also according to advanced stats Suzuki has been one of the best defensive forwards in the NHL the last two seasons.



Still some work to do to be worth this contract, but it's worth the bet to try and sign him now to get him locked up long term IMO.
I said scores more as in goals, Tkachuk .30 GPG, Suzuki .22 GPG.

I get it, Suzuki is a center but .02 PPG better does not make him more valuable than Tkachuk IMO
