If his game improves, he could be the best value for money contract, like MacKinnon's old contract or Marchand's current.

This contract would end up as a steal.

This could be end up being a really good deal.

Yup.  He really found his game after Christmas last year abd went close to a ppg. He even set a franchise record for points scored in a season  by a teenager.  I think it's going to be fun seeing him continue to develop. He only just turned 20 at the end on the season

Could end up being a steal like Jack Hughes' contract

27/28 when this deal I think so could be great for both sides

[Ghostsof1915]

Guess it depends on his trajectory. I don't like these high end Edmonton/Toronto type second contracts for a guy who just hit 50 in his second year.

Montreal better hope it turns into a bargain.

29 I think.  He still has a year on his ELC. They're buying 4 RFA years and 4 UFA years 

[Elias Pettersson]

I would have taken a 3 year bridge deal.  Just like Petey who cashed out on his 3rd contract.  But the big money is tempting when you are in your early 20's.  And he's a power forward so I don't see his numbers taking off like a Jack Hughes...

OK, still in a prime UFA contract year
