There are some I think:
Sergachev - $8.5M
Trouba - $8.0M
Chabot - $8.0M
Spurgeon: $7.57M
Ekblad: $7.5M
Morgan: $7.5M
Based on the timing of when a lot of these were signed, and the comparable that Andersson's agents will use, they will point at these as his closest comparisons.
And really the contracts that guys like Ekblad, Chychrun, Gavrikov, etc get this offseason will play a factor too.
In the end I'd be shocked if it's anything less than $7.75M but still think it's more likely $8 to get him to sign the year early with a drastically rising salary cap.
