## Resource

The Athletic’s latest player tiers are sparking buzz—some deals are pure steals. Tage Thompson’s seven-year, $50M pact with Buffalo (just over $7M/year) is a masterstroke after his 47-goal breakout. Meanwhile, Brandon Hagel in Tampa Bay is the league’s hidden gem at $6.5M for six years. Montreal’s core? Even more impressive: Lane Hudson at $8.8M, Slafkovsky, Suzuki, and Caufield all under $8M, plus Demidov’s new deal at $9.125M over eight years. This financial savvy gives Montreal room to build a true contender. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
