Cale Makar officially becomes the highest paid player in the salary cap era - 8 years, $20.4M (!) AAV with @Avalanche . Our projection was very low because there was no data point to get us to this value. With that said, we would have been critical if he had signed for close to our value given the market shift that has occurred this summer.

One of the top UFA targets is off the board. Darren Raddysh to @MapleLeafs in a sign and trade to get #MaxTerm. A touch high on the AAV for our liking at $8.5M, given term but not too bad of a contract for the Leafs to fill a massive need. Now just need to hope Raddysh continues to play at the level we have seen the past few seasons.

[Kyle Stich @k_sticher]

In our UFA match-maker episode on @MaxTermPod, I liked the idea of John Carlson on a lower term deal for Toronto but this was @J_Finchy1's pick. Not a bad move.
