He didn't make 3.75 last year. He was on an elc and there is no way he made much in bonuses.

3.5 would likely be 3 times what he made in real money last year.

Thought he hit a big one for goals? Although that'd still be under 2mil

He only scored 11 goals. Wouldn't get much bonus for that. Looking on capgeek he looks like he may have gotten 2 of the 10 possible bonuses. So he likely made around 1.5ish mill would be my guess.

I thought he had one for being top something in d goals? Staples speculated 1.7-2mil as well a month ago.

Capgeek spells out all the bonuses. 10 goal is one he hit out of ten. Maybe the ice time as well. But that's it.

Doesn't give amounts so I could see it being 1.7 with a signing bonus. I can't see 2 mill.

Complete and utter BS. Click a link to see Upton do the ice bucket challenge and what do I see? A chick wearing way too much clothes.

Guy actually cracks me up. Friend of a friend said he went up to him at a restaurant to say hi and Nail said "let's go talk outside" and they just chatted it up.

The fact that he seems like a personable guy makes me route for his bounce back year even more.

His cap hit was 925k.

With bonuses he was making 3.775 million

Its how I know its officially summer in Alberta. People break out the expensive cars and classic trucks.

Also how I know summer is over when you stop seeing them on the road.

Many have equated Yaks having fun and enjoying himself to being cocky. I like seeing him enjoying things and not being so serious. I dont think the kid has attitude issues whatsoever.

Agreed.

I find Subban to be similar in this regard as well.

Its the same with a lot of young players. "He isn't boring like Jonathon Toews. He doesn't care about the game and needs veteran leadership!"

I feel bad for this Ho-Sang kid. "I have an opinion" = kid is a problem in the locker room. He doesn't enjoy us profiling him = problems with authority.

Scouts/player development personnel are some of the easiest people to butthurt in the NHL it seems. A friend of mine went to the combine in 09 and he said that the scouts asking him questions were some of the most childish, judgemental people he'd ever met.

One scout, for a team he wouldn't name, kept using the word faggot around him to describe all the kids with long hair. He ended up saying something about "Stop saying faggot please. I have a gay brother" and the scout apparently got super butthurt and told him "Don't talk back to me. I'll make sure no team ever has interest in you" or something like that.

That was a good article on TSN. The best hockey blogger in the world, Dee Karl, touched on it nicely too

base salary was 925k, he could make as much as 3.7m if he hits all his bonuses, which he did not. Reading comprehension my friend.

More school required
