cap went up. all your $6M centers are now signing for $7M. Hayes may not be worth $7M three years ago, but with the current cap he certainly is

 

Just wanting a reference point for a player signed from age 27-34

As a second line center with less than .60 PPG

 

And making over 6 per year on said contract

Anze Kopitar 60 pnts in 81 games played. $10M per year cap hit

 

Kopitar is a .90 point per game player in his career. And had been a point per game player three previous 3 seasons.

Plus had just won the Stanley Cup scoring 26 points in 26 games, and a Selke.

 

Season before last Kopitar had 92 points.

Between the two with special team play...gotta be close to that. Couturier averaged over 22 minutes last year so I'm sure several games he was over 24. Hayes, after that big contract, would be expected to take a jump up in ice time. How about 44 minutes a game then? Better?

13 times...28 times over 23:00

 

But Hayes isn't going to do that. His value to Philly is in bringing some of Couturier's workload down, particularly on the defensive end. AV is going to use him the same way he did in NY. Checking role, let Patrick play with some talent and get favorable matchups. But AV likes to roll 4 lines, if he has his way. They're unlikely to have 1 center playing 22:00, let alone 2 of them.

 

It'll be like:

 

Couturier - 20:00

Hayes - 18:00

Patrick - 16:00
