Draisaitl is making 8.5M with 5 RFA years and 3 UFA years. Johnsan signed for 8M at 8 years. Kuznetsov signed at 7.8M at 8 years, with more RFA years, after a 59 point season.

The better player in Stone, who's contract will almost entirely be UFA years, is going to be making at least that. Otherwise Stone's taking a one year deal to get out of Ottawa.

But...but...Draisaitl isn't worth his contract. And Kane isn't worth his contract. And every player ever isn't worth his contract. We'll see. You don't get a player with a contract entirely in his 'prime' for nothing anymore, and every year people are somehow shocked at how much they get. Maybe they get him for a nice even 8M if they throw in a full NMC, but it's Ottawa so why would he want that?
