## Resource

The NHL’s offseason is exploding with record-breaking contracts, as stars like Cale Makar and Macklin Celebrini hit the $18M+ mark, signaling a new era of big money. Meanwhile, the Florida Panthers are building smartly without going all-in — Sasha Barkov’s $10M deal remains their ceiling, but they’ve locked down 13 players through 2029/30. Brady Tkachuk, acquired from Ottawa, is poised to become the first Panther over $10M annually with his impending extension. With key names like Barkov and Seth Jones looming for renegotiations in 2030, the Panthers’ financial flexibility is undeniable — and the “Brinks truck” is headed south.
