It's not about that at all. Every time someone signs a deal they sign a certain % of the cap. That is the number agents and GM ls focus on when getting the contract together. All marners comparables are about 11.1% over 5 years and roughly 18.5% added if he signed for 8 years. But Dubas over paid Nylander and Matthews both by 5% so I think Marner is entitled to the same 5%.
So 81.5 x .111 x 5% = about 9.5 over 5 years.
Or
81.5 x .111 x 18.5% x 5% = about 11.25 mil on an 8 year term MAX amount Marner should make.
These are not just my numbers this is what hundreds of people are calculating the contracts to be
I know every time someone signs, they sign a percentage of the cap... Kane's 10.6% of cap for a 5-year term is what I originally based the Marner signing off of. That is what the lion's share of this conversation has been about.
If Marner signs for 8 years, he should not take anymore than 13% of the cap hit at the time of his signing, which would equate to a $10.6M x 8 years deal. That makes sense as the max amount, given Eichel signed last season for $10M x 8 years.
Johnsson was a healthy scratch because Babcock likes real gud pros like Patty Marleau and Brownie, not because Johnsson wasn't at least worth an extended look with Matthews, or at least Kadri. The fact that Johnsson stayed on the 4th line for so long, and that Ennis stayed at the bottom the whole year, is kind of a joke.
Yeah, I'd say Kapanen is middle of the road (MOR) ish second line RW. Good for a 3rd liner, that's for sure.
Of course, if you're trying to start a team Matthews is someone you would pick, *because of the high ceiling, not because of his performance in the present/past time-frame.
