Ottinger 337*25,000=$8,425,000*.66=$5,560,500

if anyone thinks that the calculating numbers need to be adjusted they can always start that discussion.

$25k is an arbitrary number designed to improve free-agency options and accelerate improvement of lower tier teams.

The second-order effect is a sluggish trade environment. Prospect contracts are more valuable than salaried point producers.

I support the intention of the change but have always argued against the the mechanics.

I see a time where others will join me in calling for tweaking the static multiplier slightly lower.

Samsonov & But for Vladar.
