so JVR watches a guy that just put in 29 goals get 7x7 but after his 36 goal season he settles for 5.5 x 3?

6x6 will be the min for JVR

I wouldn't mind $6M either on JVR. I think the biggest factor that hinders his salary projections on different sites and tables is his average ice time. 14:54 isn't something to be joyful about but then again, if you give him more responsibilities inside the team he is on, that could change to a better number. And yeah, I know Kane's salary may up some other salaries and JVR is right there next in comparison. The term length isn't really something I tried to even wonder about that closely. I just put some number there. But what I can say about it is that Sharks shouldn't sign JVR for a long contract if they don't know right from the bat that he takes his place and goes into the Sharks system easily. That's why that 3 term length is there.

In addition: these salaries are mostly projected from Matt Cane's Salary Projection Table from Twitter. I am not that big of a wizard yet that I can foresee yet what kind of paychecks the players are gonna get so I go with what I can get from wiser men.
