4. Semyon Varlamov (4 years x 2.75m) this is the worst contract. Varly is still good now, but he will be 39 at the end of this contract. Huge risk that he reverts. The contract itself is fine the term is meh. But he is Ilya Sorokin's best friend and a good mentor so it shouldn't be that bad.

3. Pierre Engvall (7 years x 3m) the most controversial contract. At the end of last season Palmieri-Nelson-Engvall was the best line. He's only 27 and has some room to develop into a power forward. Also, like Mayfield, in a non-flat cap era, a buyout would be fine if it happened.

2. Scott Mayfield (7 years x 3.5m) one of the more questionable. He will be 37 when this contract is finished and will probably be washed by then. However, consider that the cap is going up dramatically soon and this can help them reach the floor if they need to buy out. Also, he's good atm.

I think 10 years ago people were like oh I can make a fun little platform who cares about the business model and now it's become an issue so they've decided to throw shit at the fan to make money anywhere possible
