Beforehand, the notion was that Draisaitl would get between 6.5 and 7.5:

Yeah but that was Staples thinking that.....

Pastrnak signed a 6 year deal. So he only got 2 UFA seasons vs 4 for Draisaitl.

Most reasonable fans were hoping for the Tarasenko contract, but it was 2 years later and Draisaitl had a big playoffs.

Draisaitl held all the cards in the negotiation and he certainly didn't leave any money on the table like Kucherov.
