$10mm in Florida is equivalent to over $13mm in Canada not including the funky pension scheme some use in Canada.

Great player, worth the money.


Makes me jelly we didn't hit a homerun with our #4 pick.

If Barkov is worth $10 million, Gaudreau should be getting $7.5 max on a long term deal.

Yeah like others said that’s one hell of a great contract. Hmmm take him or Dougie or Nurse at that price? Tough decision.

I wouldn't say it is a steal by any means, but is about right. Which is all any fan should ever expect anyway.

Takes them out of being a destination for high profile free agents, so other teams can relax a little. Florida is probably tops on a lot of player's lists.

Apples to oranges. One is a center and plays a two way game. One is a winger and is only great at offense.

Yes, but there is no chance Johnny signing for less than 7.5M. Not in Canada. Not unless he has a disastrous season. He’d walk if that is the best offer.

If that is the best offer Gaudreau is to get, then he most likely would take it.

I am being pedantic, so, yes. If the best offer on the table for Gaudreau is $7.5 m then he will probably sign that deal.

Technically correct but unrealistic and an academic exercise
