[JP Gambatese] Jack’s contract was ranked the best per the Athletic

Given how he’s getting better defensively and contributing even on the pk at some points this season that 8×8 is aging pretty good. I just hope he can stay healthy
And yet there’s people around here who think we need to move on from him because of the injuries. Like yea, him missing up to 20 games per season is far from ideal but look at what he does when healthy. The injuries haven’t affected his production and he’s locked up while the cap absolutely explodes
Well yeah he is fucking cracked at hockey
Are games played factored in? I would think getting injured frequently would lower a players net rating. Not coming at Jack just wondering if this is done for all players
He’s gonna pull a McKinnon on us when his contract is up lol
Gotta tell Dom to do top-10 worst now as well. I wonder where Palat would land!

Really hope Jack plays a full season. Too many people have written him and the devils off after a bad luck injury 2 years in a row.
I always have to question the market value figures. Is there any support to say that $15-$19m is actually a true market value for Jack? If you pulled the market value in this calculation for the entire league, would the total player salary go up?
Yeah the yearly LTIR cap flexibility is wonderful
It is the best as long as he’s healthy which has proven to be the most significant issue. The best ability is availability.
