Projection: a stabilized 3-year production base (0.8wins) aged along the league's survivorship-corrected curve and priced on the same market. A read on how the deal ages - not a forecast; the linear market doesn't capture the premium teams pay franchise players, so star max deals read more negative than the market treats them.
Contract data via CapWages. Cap hit is the average annual value charged against the salary cap; bars scale to this player's largest cap hit on record. Forensic Contract Value prices on-ice production (skater GSVA / goalie GSAx, in wins) against the league's own pay curve; surplus is that market value minus cap hit - read it relative to the curve, not as an absolute.
