He'll be 26 when the contract starts. While younger than Carey was at the start of his, the comparative take home salary for Andrei means he's getting a lot more.

I have no idea how Tampa is going to do it. Hedman, Kucherov, Stamkos, McDonaugh and now him. That's a lot of dough and we haven't even counted Johnson, Point.

According to capfriendly, they have about $5 million in cap space for 19-20. Point and Erne are their only RFAs this year. I don't see point accepting a bridge deal, but who knows. Still don't have the space. Stamkos, Palat, Johnson, Gourde and Killorn all have NTCs. I don't see any waiving. They have 3 goalies on contract. Domingue is likely the odd man out. Next year could be even more interesting. Cirelli, Joseph, Martel Cernak and Sergachev are all RFAs at that point. |

I hope someone offer sheets the hell out of them...They're tax advantage is just ridiculous. Would love to see the league adopte an after tax cap to level the playing field. |

Vasilevsky undoubtedly takes home more than Carey despite grossing $1MM less. If I was a team without the benefit of no state tax, I'd be screaming for a change to the CAP rules. |

From a roster/cap architecture standpoint, I am really not crazy about paying a goalie, no matter how elite, more than 10 percent of the cap. I guess that BriseBois can take solace in the fact that these should be Vasilevskiy's best years (contract ends at age 33).
I get it that Tampa is buying six UFA years from a top goalie, but it is rich considering teams make the playoffs and make noise in the playoffs with good goalies who are merely paid like good goalies.

Been arguing for a post tax cap for a number of years. It simply makes too much sense not to do.
