<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zmach</b></div><div>Nobody wanted EK the last 4 years don't get cocky. EK's contract is structured so that you can't even buy it out. If he gets injured again ad plays injured or regresses to last year you are paying the full contract instead of 16 million and you don't get the picks. Percentage absolutely matters when you consider buyouts. Most buyouts are 33% of the AAV x double the remaining years but EKs bonus structure makes it unreasonable to buy him out.

Don't ever think that the deal isn't San jose selling high while they still can even just to get rid of the cap or that this isn't about moving out money as a financial decision.</div></div>
He trouble is that most fans want a return based on Karlsson's current performance, without taking into account the fact that he's never performed anywhere near this level before and likely never will again. Unless and until they understand this, the ask will always be too high.

5v5 P/60 over the past 10 years:

12-13: 1.27 P/60
13-14: 1.37
14-15: 1.16
15-16: 1.55
16-17: 1.40
17-18: 1.44
18-19: 1.41
19-20: 1.52
20-21: 0.70
21-22: 1.35
22-23: 2.57

Other than 2 outlier seasons (this one and 20-21), they're all pretty tightly grouped between 1.16 and 1.55. These are good numbers, but Bouchard posted 1.42 last season in what was effectively his rookie year and won't cost more than $4M for the next 3 years and likely less. Plus Bouchard can be expected to get better going forward (he's only 23) while Karlsson cannot.

But SJ fans expect to get a Bouchard-type PLUS 2-3 other very good pieces (1sts, top prospects) for Karlsson with minimal retention. I think that's seriously disconnected from reality.
