Inside the Unexpected Contract Harmony Between Kyle Connor and the Winnipeg Jets—What’s Really Going On?
Dave Pagnotta: “Well, yeah. I mean, like that, that’s going to be a big ticket. How big? We kind of got to wait and see. I think especially in these types of scenarios, like McDavid is going to get his money, he’ll get his big deal. My guess is it’s in the 16 range over a four- or five-year extension, possibly 16 to 17 in that vicinity. Maybe it’s closer to in and around 16.
Kaprizov, probably in that 14 to 15 range on a longer-term deal. So I think once those numbers are solidified, or at least his representation has an idea as to what those numbers are going to end up being for some of the other guys out there. That’s going to help his case in terms of looking at 10. Is it 11? Is it $12 million per year? But again, with guys like (Connor) Hellebuyck and (Mark) Scheifele committing when they did, and the other core of that group still being there.
