Jim Biringer: “Yes, that’s a good question, Simon.

So I think the team has a salary cap, bringing the growth we expect of these huge jumps, especially in the year next year, especially in that year, we’re going to see your projector players in that year, you’re going to see a $11.3 billion salary, I can see a $12 million hat. I’m going to take three years?
Now Auston Matthews is the first to do so. Now, like Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel, we are hearing more and more information in Minnesota’s like Kirill Kaprizov.
Is this Lane Hutson’s choice? Of course. He can bet on himself. He is already a very good defender in the National Hockey League. He could be a great defender in the National Hockey League. But can I see him do this? Absolutely.
I think more people and players are studying the financial situation of things and knowing that the hat is going up. Hey, you know? I will increase the value as much as possible. I think this is the trend we will see in the National Hockey League. ”
