Frank Seravalli expects $20 million for Jonathan Drouin

Now in the NHL, obviously, we're watching the AFC Finals. One pits the best team in the NHL (Rangers) against the finalists (Panthers) and the other, the Oilers, our favorite team in Canada, against the Dallas Stars.

Two good series that are definitely worth watching.

After that, there will be the amateur draft and free agent period which are always very interesting events. Personally, these are my favorite moments of the season when the Canadian is not in the spring tournament.

Today, in a text published on Daily confrontationFrank Seravalli went there with his contract projections for free agents.

Sam Reinhart and Jake Guentzel are clearly leading the charge with massive contracts of respectively $11.3 million per year for eight years (so, with Florida) and $9.25 million per season for seven years.

What's also worth noting is Jonathan Drouin's projected contract.

Remember that Quebecois had a very good season and that it helped expand his career in North America. Remember that at the beginning of the season we were talking about Europe in his case.

However, he recovered well and according to Serravalli, Al-Kebey will sign a contract worth $20 million, or five million dollars annually over four years. not bad!

I don't know if it will be in Colorado, because, let's remember, it will be complicated for the two camps to reach an agreement, but one of the most influential journalists in the hockey world believes that he will receive $20 million .

Of the 75 names Seravalli compiled, Drouin will be the 18th highest-paid player per year, tied with Shane Gostisbehere.

In addition to Drouin, there are seven former Canadian players on the list. Below is their ranking from highest paid to lowest paid:

• Tyler Toffoli 4 years, $24 million ($6 million annually);
• Sean Monahan, 3 years, $15.9 million ($5.3 million annually);
• Erik Gustafsson 3 years, $11.55 million ($3.85 million annually);
• Max Domi, two years, $7 million ($3.5 million annually);
• Casey DeSmith, one year, $1.65 million;
• Max Pacioretty, one year, $1.5 million;
• Mike Hoffman, one year, $1.15 million.
