Sharpshooter Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Yeah, in all seriousness, I think they are well on their way. The Bobrobsky contract isn't great, but Spencer Knight is looking really good so far. So, they are solidified in that position too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 The Bob contract is horrible. Easily the worst in the entire NHL, and yet, it doesn't even affect them. They not only already have a replacement, but an upgrade, at like a tenth of the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason to think that they can't follow in the same footsteps is that they aren't managed very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 If not already, this really caps out Zib at 10m max. I don't know the tax rules and shit, but I don't think there's a chance Zib gets more than Barkov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll grant you the Bob signing was beyond stupid but they have one of the better line-ups in the league right now and a great coach. I expect them to be contenders this year.

Blue Heaven Posted October 8, 2021 Author Share Posted October 8, 2021 $10 million a year in a no-tax state. Barkov would bring home $6.1 million compared to $5.364 million if in NYC. Mika would have to sign for 8y/$86 million....$10.75 million per year to bring home more or less the same as Barkov.....which Mika will not get but shows how much an advantage a no tax state is vs. a high tax state for a superstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the tax rate definitely plays a part in where or why a player might remain or sign somewhere. Is it the only reason?? No, but is it a factor? I think so sometimes.

It gets broken down by where the games are played, meaning a FLA player pays income taxes on slightly less than half of his income. A NY player will not have to pay taxes on income derived from the approximately 7 games a year in no income tax states and at rates well below those in NY for games played in states with lower rates (such as PA and IL). Also, the players live in Westchester and don't pay NYC income tax, just as commuters don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It impacts lower salaries more than higher salaries, is it really that much of a difference between 10 million and 11 million dollars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No player who gets to free agency, who is married and likely starting a family, is going to willingly give up control over where he plays. You can give him the trade protection or not, but not almost certainly means he'll go somewhere else (that will give it to him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying don't give him ANY clause but even if you don't give him one, who's going to take someone making near $10 mil AAV/season?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could relate lol. I just think when player X negotiates and is using comparable contracts, any good negotiation tactic for a GM when the agent says another player makes an extra million would easily be “well and when they are taxed at rate whatever higher it works out less…..” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
