    Default A Burakovsky next contract and projections

    Anyone want to take a stab at guessing his next deal.

    Will he get the Kuznetsov - style bridge deal?

    Will they try to lock him up long term at a lower aav?

    Ive read in many places that Bura is expected to be in the top 6 next year. If that happens, what are some realistic projections for the guy?

    Could we see a Pastrnak - like breakout. His P60 are similar to what Pastrnak had last year and when Pasta got the extra ice and PP time, he broke out in a big way. Could we see the same think happen with Burakovsky?

    Unless he sticks on PP1 he won't get a pastrnak breakout. I don't think he will but it all depends on what happens this offseason.

    Caps will probably give him a bridge deal so they can get him cheaper now for their window to compete.

    I say something like Galchenyuk's last contract: 2 year deal at something around $3m per. (Galchenyuk was at 2.8 I think whereas Burakovsky should get a tad more than 3)

    I can see him breaking 50 with some top-6 time next year. Add PP time and he's a lock for 50+ IMO.

    if they think he's going to be elite, or s bonafide top 6. They should be skipping the bridge deal in an attempt to lock him up longer term - pay slightly more now for a discount later in the contract.

    6yrs 4-5m per... his value is hard to nail down

    Hard to say. He hasnt proved enough to lock up for big money yet.

    Im guessing a two year bridge around $3M per.

    I suspect a bridge deal so far, as he would need to be consistent throughout the season. No doubt he's had extended runs of greatness, it just needs to stick. My guess is a 2 year bridge at $3.2M perseason, or if they decide to go long term (thinking of having to re-sign Kuznetsov as well), then a 6 year/$24M deal. I don't think he gets more than $4M per in any scenario though.

    I think the Kuznetsov style bridge deal is a very good estimate. A couple years at just a touch over $3 Mil.

    2 years at a max of 4... Which potentially means Oshie won't be back and will play right into that bridge deal...

    I agree with this.

    He's a forward, so it'll be a bridge. Forwards have to essentially force the team to pay them by having big results - defensemen get paid on potential.
