## Resource

Zach Hyman’s breakout season has silenced doubters who questioned his hefty Oilers contract — he’s been a scoring machine, especially with McDavid, racking up 170+ goals and 310+ points in 360+ games, with even better playoff numbers. At 36 when his deal expires in 2027, the salary cap surge makes his next contract a hot topic. Comparing recent veteran deals like Eberle’s ($5.5M/yr) and Kopitar’s ($7M/yr), Hyman could command $6–8M annually — maybe $7.5–8M for a two-year deal or $6–6.5M over three years. The key? Finding a fair middle ground that honors his value and adapts to the new cap reality. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
