That was a discount for 4 years instead of 8. Meanwhile all 3 of Florida's free agents who all probably could have got 10 mill a year only saved their team 11mill a year on the cap. We get no hometown discounts.


I think this is what is most discouraging to watch. You can tell the Panthers players know they can win again and they want to win again. The Oilers don't have that confidence. Bouchard's contract feels like he wants to make some money and then get out so he can win somewhere else if things aren't working out. I actually expect McDavid's deal to be similar.
