You know the two big things that have changed. I think in the last few years you know, the absence of the second contract. And so you know the kid in the third year of his entry level deal puts up 40 goals. Now he wants to make seven million. So and you know, if you want term with that player, he's gonna take you higher than that. So, so that's a big change.
And you know, what what's really happening is, the stars are taking all the money and the guys in the middle are getting squeezed. So the, you know, the differences are, you know, the veterans? The veterans who don't score a lot are getting squeezed. And, you know, I don't like it. I think there's a lot of players in the league, making a million dollars who are better players. And and then the guys who can put the puck in the net are getting are getting you know too big too big, a piece of the pie.
