Sujet: Buffalo Sabres signed Rasmus Dahlin (8 Years / $11,000,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>Not to get too deep into the mathematical side of this, but I think its important to consider this deal in the broader context of what other players, such as Makar, Miro, and Q. Hughes signed back in 2021-22 to have a better understanding of the value of Dahlin's deal. We should consider the Present Value of all these deals, in their entirety, back in 2021-22 by discounting them back based on the annual cap increase YoY. For this purpose, I assumed a 4.79% growth in 2024-25 and 5.14% growth in 2025-26, and a constant 4.00% growth each year thereafter. Let's consider:

<strong>Miro Heiskanen</strong>
Present Value: $57,703,775
Term: 8 years
AAV: $7,212,972

<strong>Cale Makar</strong>
Present Value: $48,044,169
Term: 6 years
AAV: $8,007,362

<strong>Quinn Hughes</strong>
Present Value: $41,905,192
Term: 6 years
AAV: $6,984,199

When combining the bridge and long term deal of Dahlin, we can get a better picture of what this contract is worth:
<strong>Rasmus Dahlin</strong>
Present Value: $82,720,365
Term: 11 years
AAV: $7,520,033

We can see that Dahlin is right in line with other star defensemen, although on the higher end in terms of AAV. However, if we extrapolate and assume that the next contracts of Makar, Heiskanen, and Hughes all start with an initial Cap Hit % of 12% with a duration of 7 years, we can consider the value of these contracts:

<strong>Miro Heiskanen</strong>
Present Value: $114,345,394
Term: 15 years
AAV: $7,623,026

<strong>Cale Makar</strong>
Present Value: $104,685,789
Term: 13 years
AAV: $8,052,753

<strong>Quinn Hughes</strong>
Present Value: $98,546,812
Term: 13 years
AAV: $7,580,524

<strong>Rasmus Dahlin</strong>
Present Value: $82,720,365
Term: 11 years
AAV: $7,520,033

I think it is an accurate and fair assumption to consider Dahlin is the same category of skill and rank of these similar players. So even though the sticker shock is quite high, he is effectively the least expensive out of the other players under these assumptions. For reference, Makar and Miro are going to be pushing a minimum 12M-13M on the open market, while Dahlin will never see that day until 2032.</div></div>

Amazing contribution! Loved this mathematical breakdown. If you do these breakdowns often somewhere, I'd totally sign up to read it (maybe even with a paywall).

Sujet: Suggestions Megathread
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheFastAndTheFleuryous</b></div><div>I have a few questions about that idea.

1. What happens for trades? What font would they use — their original team’s, or the team to which they were traded? Also, what if two players have the same number in that scenario?

2. Free agents — what number would they get? Would they have the number that they had with their previous team — and again, what about if two players have the same number?

3. Some ACGMs use created players to simulate KHL signings (or the ACGM owner signing himself). What number would be chosen for that?

Overall, it’s not a bad idea, it just could use a couple tweaks.</div></div>

I really like the potential for this aesthetic but I think you're overthinking the issue:

1. Team logos don't change for a player acquired via trade, why should the jersey number? The contrast in logos should easily rectify the issue with same numbers.

2. Free agents aren't assigned a team logo when signed to the club, if the jersey number is tied to the team logo, they wouldn't get one anyways. Even traded-for-and-signed RFA's are left with the logoless namebar.

3. Created players are likewise unassigned a team logo when brought onto an AGM. This presents the same non-issue as the free agent case.

The only real challenge I could see is having to generate 900 some-odd individual image icons for every player active in the NHL this upcoming season. Not sure how simple layering two png's on an interactable web feature is (and keeping them there while a user clicks and drags).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>Would depend on how Podkolzin performs this year but I wouldn't mind trading the comp pick for him. I'm not sure where that pick will be but I assume it would be somewhere in the middle of the round? Either way, unless he tanks or doesn't have any improvements, I wouldn't really mind it.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Moss_Bucket</b></div><div>Flyers would consider it all depending how Pod's 2023-24 season goes.</div></div>

He's going to be in the AHL to start the season. Depends how the season goes but he may not see a ton of NHL ice time unless injuries or he plays great in AHL. Fortunately, there are some other solid prospects for him to play with in the Canucks system this season.
