I’m stepping through this first extension methodically so you can confirm I’m applying the rules correctly.
The player I want to extend is Landeskog, who is on an expiring prospect contract: “RW Gabriel Landeskog, $0m (P-Ext)”
Landeskog is actually LW-only on Fantrax … if you could please update his position designation on my roster when you get around to processing this extension, I’d appreciate it.
Landeskog was the #6 LW in 2013-2014 and the #67 LW in 2012-2013. (To determine those rankings I did a search on Fantrax in the League’s “Players” page for the stats of all LW’s in each of the the past two regular seasons in the “Tracked” setting; I haven’t figured out what “Tracked” vs. “Scored” is, but they yielded the same rankings.)
So, normally the extension price would be the $7.1m/yr for a #6 LW (the better of the two rankings) per the contract extension prices in the rules, but I’d like to invoke the “prospect extension discount” rule for this expiring prospect contract to get a 5-year extension at 70% of the usual salary. $7.1 * .70 = $4.97, rounding to $5.
So, I’d like to extend Gabriel Landeskog for 5 years (i.e. through 2018-2019) at $5m per year.
Thanks,
