McAvoy sign for 3 years 4.9 and they call it a steal...

is it?

I know Provy's and McAvoy's contract are different. Provy had 26 points and McAvoy had 25 points in less games last year (54).

The edge to Charlie on PPG, games played to Provy.

17-18 - 63 games for McAvoy 32 points

17-18 - 82 games 41 points for Provy, or use 16-17 at 82 games and 30 points.

McAvoy plays with Chara, Provy mainly with AMAC...

you can see the potential with McAvoy, if he can stay healthy for 82 games.

Looking at the contracts, both have their good and both have risk, is one a steal and one is not?

Detractors said we shouldn't pay Provy for his potential, are they paying McAvoy for his?


Opinions and input?

I personally don't think either the Werenski or McAvoy contracts are a steal. Of the three contracts, the one that has the potential to be a steal in the future is the Provorov contract.

I really don't get the McAvoy headline saying it is a steal, it could be a good deal but he hasn't played a full season so far and having Chara can't hurt.

The sides need to compromise on something like a 5 x $5m deal for TK.

Is the consensus thought of this contract pretty much the same of provy, a bit of an overpay now but down the road will look like a bargain? I was hoping it wouldn't be any more than 5 a season and honestly thought it could be 4.5 a season, but I am in the camp that thinks Konecny has more to his game and can end up being close to a PPG scorer as well as an agitator and an all round pest to play against.

My thought on this deal is the same as after the signing of the Provorov deal. Why did it take so long?

Same deal as Provy contract

Slight overpay now, will probably be good value within 2 years, and a steal by the end (hopefully)

A little too tight to the cap for my liking but I still expect the cap to go up a decent amount in the next few years and we probs wont resign Niskanen or Jake at the end of their deals

Have to assume it must have been signing bonus vs. salary structure ...even with that you gotta wonder how it did not get pinned down more quickly.

Provys made a little more sense- once Werenski signed it became much easier

TK idk. Maybe he saw how they were putting Faravee with the big guns and heard what AV was saying and told his agent to just make a deal

Same feeling as the Provorov deal. Looks like an overpayment now but should be a bargain close to the end of the deal.

Well TK's deal feels a little heavy but that's just how it goes I suppose.

At least the gangs all signed so we can get this season under way. I hope AV finds a way to train up TK from his missing 3 camp days!

It’s better than leblanc’s Deal since we don’t have to worry about paying him for a bit and we don’t need to hire his wife off the books
