🚨PROJECTION SNEAK PEEK: The cap going up significantly is starting to produce some contracts that people didn't really see coming. EX: Wennberg $6M AAV. We are in the middle of running our next batch of projections and here is where we landed with Dvorak... #LetsGoFlyers #NHL

Nashville Predators and Justus Annunen agree to a 2 year, $1.25M AAV contract. This is perfectly fine for a backup goalie.

On the most recent @MaxTermPod.bsky.social episode, @kylestich.bsky.social & @jamesfinch.bsky.social discussed how they would go about building the Canadian Olympic roster. Available wherever you get your podcasts! #NHL #Olympics linktr.ee/afpanalytics

🚨 A new @maxtermpod.bsky.social is now live! We begin a 3 part Olympic roster prediction/projection episode by discussing the Canadian roster. Who's in? Who's out? Are there any potential roster sleepers? Will Bedard, Celebrini, and/or Schaefer make it? tr.ee/0PYAaK77N0

#GoJetsGo lock in their captain. 5 years, $5M per year. The AAV is well above out projection from May but with the rising cap and extra years, it isn't surprising. This is very close to the going market rate for reliable 3Cs, which Lowry certainly is. #NHL

🚨 ICYMI: Tech issues led our @MaxTermPod.bsky.social episode to drop over the weekend. Harley deal impact, Andersson/CGY, Cooley deal impact on other RFA Cs, plus J-Rob, Kempe, Tuch. Panic level? All discussed by @kylestich.bsky.social on all podcast platforms. #NHL linktr.ee/afpanalytics

Logan Cooley & the Utah Mammoth have agreed to an extension. A little above projected AAV, but makes sense with an extra UFA year bought. He’s the first of the star ELC RFA centers to sign, setting the market! #NHL #TusksUp

Solid deal for Marcus Pettersson and the Canucks. The top 4 Dman gets an extra year over projection, but that may have allowed Vancouver to keep the AAV down. In our eyes, this is fair for both sides. #Canucks #NHL

We had discussed Rantanen as part of our extension release episode on @maxtermpod.bsky.social. We also touched on what our MAX Stat is. tr.ee/0PYAaK77N0

Mikko Rantanen to the Carolina Hurricanes! WOW! Do they extend him before July 1st?!? #RaiseUp #NHL #GoAvsGo

Brett Howden signed a 5 year, $2.5M AAV contract to stay with Vegas. We did not expect to see this type of term for Howden. AAV considering the length is fine but definitely an unexpected contract.

Vegas Golden Knights and Brayden McNabb, an original member of the team agree to a 3 year, $3.65M AAV contract. Very fair deal by both sides in this negotiation.

#Sabres once again have to change a productive line (Benson swapped with Peterka) because Dylan Cozens' line is struggling.

Let's take another look at NHL Edge numbers to see what more insights can potentially be gleaned. The Red Wings top line has been off to a hot start, particularly Dylan Larkin and Alex DeBrincat. 1/6

Twitter desktop is giving me issues. So glad @joeyerdon.bsky.social has made it his personal quest to help people get here.

Quick thread on NHL Edge newly available stats: The new NHL Edge stat release is certainly a welcome step in analytics but the data is definitely limited and the usability is rough. With that said, there seems to be some insights to be gleaned. With that let's take a look at Alex Tuch. 1/6
