    Default Aav

    Stupid question time, but what does AAV actually stand for? I see it all the time now, but no one ever mentions what it is short for.

    Writer of the weekly Top 10 column.

    12-team Keeper pool, straight points for forwards & dmen. Goalies get: 2 points per win, 3 per shutout, 1 point per assist & 1 point per shootout loss.

    League champ in 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020 and 2022.

    Top 8 forwards, 5 dmen and 2 goalies count.

    We keep 15 players (any position) plus two rookies.

    Forwards: Panarin, Ovechkin, Kopitar, Stamkos, Tuch, Rust, Marchessault, Pavelski, Miller, Bertuzzi, Stone, Kakko, Brown, Stankoven, Kovalenko
    Defence: Hedman, Fox, Matheson, Thrun, Jiricek

    I was wondering the same thing reading Friedman's 30 thoughts.

    Example sentence - Malkin is expected to have a higher AAV than Crosby once he signs his contract

    From Friedman's column today: "Maybe, but it's very likely that if Getzlaf hit unrestricted free agency, the crush to get him would have pushed his AAV even higher (a little more on that below)."

    Why not just say cap hit? I have no idea what AAV is.

    Twitter. AAV = 3 characters, cap hit = 7 characters.

    Yep. It's pretty commonly used in financial situations - real estate, law, etc.

    On Twitter, it makes sense. In his column, less so. His column was 2,726 words, and 15,478 characters (with spaces). He couldn't have mentioned on first reference "It sounds like the Ducks were hoping to get him signed for an average annual value (AAV) of $7.5 million US."

    Boom. Five extra characters, and now it makes sense the rest of the way.

    Never said if it was right or not. But I think the habit comes from Twitter.
