Hey, it's Dustin Wolf's next contract!

Wolf's rookie season (so far): .918, 2.59
Shesterkin's rookie season: .916, 2.62

Cause and effect. The Rangers needed their goalie a lot more than they needed the league's biggest headache.

Bob won his Stanley Cup in Year 5 of a 7 year contract that when signed was worth 12.27% of the salary cap - which is likely right around where the Shesterkin deal lands.

Yeah and arguably was the reason they couldn't get near one before. He was terrible.

Funny how 12MM for the best player in the goalie position is too much.

But you pay a severely underperforming winger 10.5MM and it's just shrug, we'll make it work.

That's the difference between a team trying to contend and a team doing a rebuild. The Rangers want to win and are up against the cap. The Flames are under no pressure to win and are barely above the floor.

With the cap finally rising to where it should have been the last couple of years, you're going to see a lot of ‘biggest X contract ever’ deals soon. Just wait till you see how much money Mavi gobbles up for the back half of his career.
