Projection uses CapWages signing histories, current production, age, position, free-agent class, prior cap share, and prior term. It estimates the market, not the player's true worth, and one negotiation can land outside the band.
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.
