My guess the lowest possible amounts would be:
McDavid: $14M and up - he's going to be the highest paid player in the league, my guess is at least $14M. He's going to have a ton of pressure from the NHLPA to set the new market though. $18M is likely the max salary by the time he's eligible to re-sign and I'd be shocked if the NHLPA isn't pushing for him to get that amount.
Draisaitl: $12.6M to $13.25M - that would be the Mackinnon to Matthews range.
Bouchard: $9.5M to $10.5M - that's kind of the going rate for young top pairing d-men
So at the absolute lowest I think you'd possibly see for these 3 it's likely about $36M for the 3 of them.
