Ian Cole
Lyubushkin
Kulak
Peeke
Rutta
Luke Schenn

Looking at that list, there is no way you sign Zadorov for $3 MM especially when you consider his current contract was 4.5% of cap (~$4 MM of next years cap) when he signed with the Flames.

He is almost certainly getting north of $4 MM (~$4-$4.5 MM) and that would be fair value for him when you consider the guys around those numbers:

Brenden Dillon
Gudas
Leddy
Larsson
Grzelcyk
Gudbranson
McCabe
Pettersson
I think people get hung up on numbers, when it has more to do with percentages. Thanks for your post.
