The signing yesterday might've been the biggest steal in the NHL

Nevertheless, Edmonton was able to secure enough cap space to sign the defenseman who has proven to be a valuable asset.

Evan Bouchard's contract comparables (2x$3.9M):

1. K'Andre Miller $3.872M x 2
2. Bowen Byram $3.85M x 2
3. Vince Dunn $4M x 2
4. Noah Dobson $4M x 3
5. Filip Hronek $4.4M x 3

The 40-point defenseman has comparables for AAV across the league, however, as his 2-year, $3.9 Million AAV is arguably a success for the team.

Bouchard and the Oilers seem to have found a nice sweet spot for both parties, and we're going to enjoy two more years of him in Oil Country.
