Rasmus Ristolainen

2015/2016 - 1.2 fppg (82gp) - total 98.55 points - Tier 2 = 5m / year salary by chart
2014/2015 - .82 fppg (78gp) - total 63.85 points - Tier 3 = 1.75m / year salary by chart
2013/2014 - .59 fppg (34gp) - total 19.90 points - Tier Depth = .75m / year salary by chart
2012/2013 - Did not play



Total points 182.3 in 194 games for an average of .94 fppg





We will offer him a 2 year max deal at 5 million a season spot on what the chart suggests.   1.2 fppg = 5m a season

To reference my previous post:

3. Identify if player falls under Bridge Contract Rule 

Bridge Contract Rule: 2 year max contract term
Players who fall into one or more of the following criteria are subject to the Bridge Contract Rule.
a) 2 or less full NHL seasons (41+ games) played in last 4 NHL seasons
b) Less than 40 games played in most recent season
c) Production tier in most recent season has not been replicated in players recent seasons.
d) Production tier in 2 or more previous full seasons are higher than production tier in most recent season

His most recent year is Tier 2 compared to Tier 3 and Depth in previous years.

Can't offer him a 4-year contract, 2 years max. I'll allow you to edit this offer though to not re-create a 3rd time.

I'll edit my post to 2 years instead of 4 and we can discuss offline why bridge contracts are forced and not optional.

[JetsGM (Jacob)]

No problem. Shoot me a message and we can discuss.

Approved for the contract offer @ 2 years. High price, but consistent improvement and he is already the #1 dman in Buffalo after 2.5 seasons.
