For comparison, McDavid and Crosby both made around 15.5% of the salary cap in the first year of their biggest deals and consumed the most cap.

With a projected cap of 113.5M when this deal starts, Makar would be at 18%.

This deal is absolutely bonkers.

The max a player can sign right now is 20.8M AAV, so Makar gave Colorado a 0.4M discount :)

Next summer will be ~22.7M. Quinn Hughes probably thinking about that right now.
